- Hello All!
-
- I'm new to the group, so take it easy if I happen to ask some FAQ.
- I installed Linux 0.99pl2 and X11 this weekend. I tried to configure the Xconfig
- file without too much luck. I have a 386/40, 8MB ram, ATI VGA Wonder+ card with
- 1MB installed and a mouse attached to the ATI card. The monitor I am using is a
- NEC 2A that can support to a maximum 800x600. If anyone can point me to a help
- source ie, FAQ, another ATI user, or simply talk me through this I would be
- very grateful.
-
- When Linux boots it tells me I have a Logitec Bus mouse - is this correct? I
- thought the ATI mouse is Microsoft compatible. Also I'm not sure what clocks,
- rez stuff I should be using. I have tried both colour and mono Xconfig files -
- no luck. I can post the screen I get with the error message if it would be
- helpful.
-
- Thanks in advance to all,
-
