When I was looking into getting the Nvidia proprietary driver working, I found that the nomodeset kernel flag had to be set for the driver to work properly. Once I did that, the vesa driver did work. I've got the 8 bit color working, however when I run just Xorg from the command line the Backing Store option is being ignored by my client. In a separate thread, it looks to me like the client is incorrectly handling the backing store. _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: [email protected]
