Hi, I grabbed Branden's 3.3.4-0 svga xserver when it came out, to get my Trio3D going. I got it to work with a bit of effort, at 800x600x16. I hadn't updated the system since then, until just now. Now when xdm or startx starts, the screen starts flickering, and then goes into powersave mode. I've tried it on another monitor too. (Both only 15") I guessed it must be trying to start a resolution, so I brought it back to 640x480, but to no avail. I've looked at xfree86.org, they have a couple of modelines they think work on the card, but I was using them already.
It wasn't upgrading the server that killed it, cause I didn't upgrade the server straight away :( I actually left all the 3.3.4-0 stuff, except for xlib6g, which heaps of packages depended on. When I rebooted, xdm didn't come up, so I upgraded everything to 3.3.4-2, but still no luck! I've now downloaded the binary 3.3.5 svga server, still the same thing. The annoying thing is, it has worked, but now it doesn't!!! I don't know what broke it. Anyone else have a Trio3D? Anyone having the same kind of problems? Thanks, Tim. -- Tim Thomson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
