- Hello to everybody,
-
- As it seems to be difficult to set up X on a Trident VGA -card I'm posting
- my Xconfig file.
-
- Further information:
- I have a 386-33 with AMI bios,
- a 80M harddisk (IDE, WESTERN DIGITAL)
- 4M memory, a cheap serial mouse,
- TRIDENT TVGA 8900C card with BIOS C2.11
- A cheap color monitor AOC (CM-335)
- with a maximum horizontal frequence of 39.5
- I'm using the SLS-distribution v0.89pl1
-
- This what I have been doing:
- I made the root readable for everyone
- I performed a mkfontdir in all the font directory's.
- I did not compress the font files.
- /usr/X386/bin/X a symbolic link to /usr/X386/bin/X386.
- set up the config-file wich will follow.
- Wondering how i can get my monitor in interlaced mode with X386
-
- My Xconfig:
-
- RGBPath "/usr/X386/lib/X11/rgb"
- FontPath "/usr/X386/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X386/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo,/usr/X386/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
