And each of range includes, or almost includes, the working clocks value from my old X3 config of 28.32. And both config files had to have a modeline manually entered before I could get anything to appear, other than an error message. The X3 xf86config program says _not_ to probe clocks, but X4 looks like it is probing clocks. > btw, are you running a 2.2 kernel? i couldn't get x4 to run on 2.2, and went I am running a 2.4 kernel. > with the 2.4 kernels for that reason. don't know exactly why--i was more > interested in the functionality than the detective work. Detective work is how I survive computer science while forgetting to hand anything in... I get some credit for testfiles that crash the same number of (or sometimes more) programs than the teacher's (most of the caught problems are null pointers), while my programs run unscathed.
