I seem to be having the same problem as you are with my new 2.0 distrib. I know it's not too fruitful to receive another "I have that problem too" response, but perhaps we could colaborate until someone with a definite fix answers on the list. > I have a Diamond Viper V330 card which is supported in the SVGA server and > 4megs of vram and all of my other hardware works. My situation is similar, but on much more modest hardware. I'm installing to an old ThinkPad 701CS with 1024K video. I've noticed that I had to create my own symlinks from /usr/X11R6/bin/X -> /etc/X11/X and from /etc/X11/X -> /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA. That was a little unusual I thought (having to create them, I mean). I also thought it was weird that the error would say no screens found when the XF86config clearly has them. I did try other XF86config files just for fun, and I wonder if the syntax hasn't changed from XFree 3.3.2 to 3.3.3. The error with the 3.3.2 config says it can't find an "accel" display configured, even though there is an "Accel" configured beautifully. I'm wondering if one of the following scenarios explains our problems: a) There's a new XF86Config syntax that XF86Setup doesn't fully know about. b) Something has changed from 3.3.2 to 3.3.3 such that symlinks don't get created properly or aren't used similarly, and such that configuration of the new version is different (trickier) than configuration of the old version. c) There's something really basic one or both of us overlooked because of a 2:00am brainfart that clouded our vision. Hopefully someone smart will chime in and elucidate the error of our way....? Luck and fortune to us both! :-) -- David S.
