Hi! I've been trying to install X11 almost a whole day and it won't work. I have a STB PCI card with the chip Promotion 6422 and Horizon 64V BIOS. I've tried both the STB Horizon Video (type349) and Allience Promotion 6422 (type54). Sometimes I get it to work for a few seconds before it hangs, especially in low resolutions. It usually hangs right away with the grey pattern.. sometimes the screen is wrapped and only displayd in the left half. I've tried using both xf86confing and XF86Setup, the later always displays a weird resolution in which it is impossible to read text in after doing the setup of card, monitor etc. My monitor is a Hansol 17PX. The mouse is a 3button Logitech (I use the Logitech Mouseman, type6 in xf86config).
I've had the video card work in another computer before and nt works on this computer too. I'm going to get a ps/2 mouse as soon as I get the contact for the motherboard, maybe this will help? I used a ps/2 in the other computer where it did work.. Thanks for any help!! //ben -- http://surf.to/anTiX
