Backup the original one though. ;)
Hey Michel, You're wonderful!!! I'm writing this email to you off my ViewSonic21 running at measly 1280x1024 but it's much better than the 1024x768 I got using 'mirror'. I rebuilt r128_driver.c with the CRTOnly code commented in, added: Option "CRTOnly" to my XF86Config, and took out: Option "ProgramFPRegs" "No" (that last one caused me quite some grief till I read the code and realized it wasn't running the CRTOnly check unless registers were on....) And it works!!!! I'm happy to provide my recompiled r128_drv.o to pismo folks. Perhaps Michel can put it on his WWW site? Cheers! jas.
