Hello, I didn't follow this thread, but to get mine to work, I downloaded the binaries of X 4.2 on ftp.xfree86.org, launched ./install.sh and ohh miracle, it worked right away :) No AGP, No FBdev.
The garbage on the screen might also come from an incorrect RAM setting. I'd like to acknowledge the work of _ Greycat _ on #debian, allways there to answer people's questions, evennow he didn't get this one :) Guillaume Le Sat, 9 Feb 2002 17:59:54 -0800, Aaron Brashears <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a marmonne: > On Sat, Feb 09, 2002 at 10:15:47AM -0500, Timothy Burt wrote: > > 1) Have you compiled support for agpgart in the kernel?
