I am not a newbie to computers, but I am to Linux, and so far not so good. Hardware:
ASUS SP97-V MB, which has the video built in (SiS 5598 chipset) Monitor is a Sceptre Dragon Eye D54 Though the accompanying information indicates that XFree86 will handle the SiS 5598 chipset, for reasons that I do not fathom, it defaults to a 320X200 screen (first problem), and then bombs because it cannot find the "fixed" font in /fonts/misc/. Left to its own devices, XF86Config specifies "Generic VGA" (hence, I gather, the 320x200 screen size) It indicates that the SiS chipset is "unknown" Where am I going wrong? What other information is needed? Cam Cam Ellison, Ph.D., R.Psych. [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] >From the lovely Sunshine Coast, where it only SEEMS to rain.
