- Hi, everyone:
-
- After a few days of trying, I can not get X386 working on my 486 machine.
- Start with "xinit", I only got into graphics mode twice during the last a
- few days and then the system hangs. But most of time, after the console
- displays the following message:
-
- X386 1.2E 1.0.1 / X Window System
- (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 5000)
-
- the system hangs without going into the graphics mode and dump a "core.X386".
- So, what am I missing?
-
- Here is my configuration:
-
- Hardware:
- GA-486US Local Bus motherboard, 64KB Cache, CPU: Intel 486-33
- 8MB 60ns RAM
- Quantam LPS240AT IDE Drive, 30MB for DOS
- GA-200 Local Bus VGA card with 1MB memory (ET4000 based)
- NEC 5FG monitor
- Legend mouse in com1
-
- Kernal: 0.1.26 (Comes with X386 binary)
-
- Xconfig file:
-
- RGBPath "/usr/lib/X11/rgb"
