[Mac-on-linux-users] No X11 Video (Only Console FB Mode is Working)

[Calin B. <cbr...@ya...>]

I compiled 0.9.72 on my Mac mini under Ubuntu Feisty. 
I can't seem to get X11 video support working.  I have
a guest Mac OS install of 10.3.9 Panther with the
display set to 1024x768x75.  The X11 host is running
1440x900x75.

In molrc.video, I have:

resolution:            640/480/75     
depth:                 32

and I've tried other "hinted" video modes in
molrc.video and guest modes < 1440x900  I've also
tried setting the X11 host to 1280x1024.

When I try to force X11 output using

enable_console_video:   no
start_on_console:       no          
autoswitch_console:     no            

I get "No video modes at all was found - exiting"

DONE

I've compiled with and without XDGA support, just to
see if it makes a difference.

I quite happy with the Console FB performance but
would like to try X11 windowed mode too.  Any help or
suggestions are much appreciated.

Also, could someone please explain what is lost in
going to 10.4 Tiger and broken MOL "acceleration?"

Thanks again,
