- Hello,
-
- I'm still trying to get X386 working, but it only starts if I boot MSDOS
- before and reboot without a hardware reset. Otherwise it produces a core
- dump (you can have it if it could help). If it starts (e.g. via xdm) the
- keyboard input is a "little bit" confused. I do not the character I pressed.
-
- I tried to open and close /dev/vga and /dev/console, stty raw </dev/console,
- removed /dev/console from /etc/ttys. Nothing helps.
-
- Please, can anybody tell me where I can find a patched X server, BSD kernel
- or what ever I need ? I'm afraid, but I can't recompile the server or kernel
- because the hard disk is to small. I've got a friend who has the same
- problem and he would be happy too, if you can help.
-
- What I use:
- 386DX 25MHz (AMI bios)
- ET4000 (galaxy and speedstar)
- 8 Mbyte RAM
- 200 Mbyte hard disk (conner)
-
- X386 1.0.1 plus its new 386bsd kernel
-
- Thanks in advance
- Henry
