I gave up on using the tools provided and made a XF86Config by hand (used the chipset suggested by xf86cfg), tested it with XFree86 -xf86config <filename> until I had something that met my needs. Actually if I had done it like that to start with I probably would saved myself a lot of time. Thanks to you and Vince for helping me out. For those interested, here's a copy of my XF86Config-4 for the LCD Panel on a Compaq Armada M300. It still needs some polishing, but it does work. Sorry to be so elaborate about the description: I hope that will make it easier for the next person to find what he needs. ======= Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "XFree86 Configured" Screen 0 "Screen" 0 0 InputDevice "SlidePad" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "Files" RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb" ModulePath "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules" # FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/" # FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" Load "dri" Load "extmod" Load "glx" Load "pex5" Load "record" Load "xie" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard" Driver "keyboard" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "SlidePad" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "True" Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "LCD Panel" VendorName "Compaq" ModelName "Armada M300" HorizSync 30.5-48.5 VertRefresh 40-100 EndSection Section "Device" ### Available Driver options are:- ### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False", ### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz" ### [arg]: arg optional #Option "accel" # [<bool>] #Option "crt_screen" # [<bool>] #Option "composite_sync" # [<bool>] #Option "hw_cursor" # [<bool>] #Option "linear" # [<bool>] #Option "mmio_cache" # [<bool>] #Option "probe_clocks" # [<bool>] #Option "reference_clock" # <freq> #Option "shadow_fb" # [<bool>] #Option "sw_cursor" # [<bool>] Identifier "ATI Rage LT Pro" Driver "ati" VendorName "ATI" BoardName "Mach64 LI" ChipSet "ati" ChipId 0x4c49 ChipRev 0xdc BusID "PCI:0:5:0" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen" Device "ATI Rage LT Pro" Monitor "LCD Panel" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 1 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 4 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 8 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 15 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 16 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection ======= -- Support bacteria - they're the only culture some people have.
