Hello... I got trouble to get the fbdev driver to work with XFree86 on my Pegasos with A Voodoo4 card. I get corrupt colors in colordepth ove 8bits. I tried to set the settings with fbset and so on. Is there anyway to get this thing to work with 16bpp? /Mikael Karlsson |

These problems extend when using the X server with the fbdev driver, right ? Friendly, Sven Luther |

It looks like rainbow colors over the screen. In 8bpp modes it looks good and no corrupt colors. I also tried the tdfx driver and it hangs in color depth over 8bpp. /Mikael Karlsson > > Friendly, > > Sven Luther > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now. > Build and deploy apps & Web services for Linux with > a free DVD software kit from IBM.

Its a endian issue. Been there :-( The voodoo card needs to be set to big endian access.

I have neither voodoo specs, nor access to the hardware, still i would very much like to have it working. Friendly, Sven Luther |

I have the specs on my hard drive that just crashed. I plan to recover the data this week. It is possible to fix.

Did you manage to rescue the specs from your damaged harddisk ? Friendly, Sven Luther |
