hi,

...colours go all strange when in 16-bit and higher modes using the Glint
driver without the FBDev option. yes, this is the same with 4.0.2 on a
2.2.10 kernel too
to confirm earlier reports:
XFree 4.0.2 glint driver works on 2.2.10 with PCI enabled (though
colours get screwed)
using the UseFBDev solves this.
dont know about 2.4.x yet as I have to get latest fixes from CVS...if it
doesnt work then I have to compile X with latest CVS'd patches and try
then.

Hello everybody! Now I got my config file and some errors I got during the compilation. Most of the time compilation aborts due to internal errors (...got fatal signal 11; or ...got fatal signal 4). If these errors occured I restarted immediately! I'll attach my config file and a file containing three error outputs (except those described above) I got with this config. I also tried to compile using my 2.2.10 config, but the results are the same! I hope anybody is able to help! Would be great if I would be able to compile my own 2.4 kernel and finally will also be able to burn some CD-ROMs! Many thanx in advance Kind regards -- ======================== René Thol ------------------------------------ Multimedia Computing University of Ulm ======================== E-Mail: Ren...@gm... ======================== |
