I recompiled my kernel today (minor changes) and after installing the new version, when I try to start X, I get:
...

I have no idea what caused this. /etc/X11/XF86Config hasn't changed and ran fine for a couple of years. I reinstalled the old kernel and it made no difference. I'm running potato, kernel 2.2.10 on a K6-2/350 with 64 MB ram. It's a generic video card with a Cirrus 5430 chip. I have no idea where the 22.778 MHz maximum dot-clock line came from. Any ideas? -- Bob Nielsen Internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tucson, AZ AMPRnet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] DM42nh http://www.primenet.com/~nielsen
