Just installed Woody on my ol' PowerMac 7300 with it's integrated video
system. How on earth do I get Xfree up and chipper? dpkg-reconfigure
xserver-xfree86 does it's "Please enter the video card's bux
identifier," but lspci does me no good 'cuz it's not a PCI card.

In general, you can reconfigure packages with 'dpkg-reconfigure '
This procedure, applied to xserver-xfree86, should give you a file
'/etc/X11/XF86Config-4'. If you want to reconfigure X later on, dexter
does a decent job of it.

I installed the xserver-S3v server, since that is the chipset that my (S3

Hi,
If you have not already installed xserver-vga16 package, please do so. With
the xserver-vga16 package comes a utility named XF86Setup which will make
configuring X much more easier. You probably do not want to use the VGA16
server so answer 'no' when the installation script asks you if you
I have XFree86 setup; but with some problems.
First,
the setup from dselect did not indicate that I neded any fonts to be
loaded, and this (of course) caused failures. THis would be a good
dependency to note!
Also;
the level of detail for Xsetup that requires refresh rates, dot-clock,
chip set
Actually I would love to hear the advice to this user as I have the same
board on my machine and X does not run ever since I upgraded to Debian 1.3.1

Do not probe. And do not use the fancy setup program.
And then make sure you see a stable grey screen before venturing further.
You may also have to use the following command line.
startx -- -bpp 16

I have tried numerous installations of X and I can't get the monitor to

Hi all!
I have been able to run Minicom without any problems but now it can't

When my system boots I get a few error messages:
/dev/cua0 'no such device'
/dev/cua1 'no such device'
/dev/cua2 'n
