Where can I find TFM on setting up hardware acceleration for a Matrox G400 AGP? Is it worth doing this under X 3.3.6 or will it be less trouble to make the jump to X 4.0.2 and set up acceleration there?
Also, I'm doing this for the sake of playing Loki's games, which are all hellbent on using 16 bpp color, no more, no less. I'm not willing to give up my 32 bpp for everything else, so I've tried (from the console, to avoid permission problems) `startx -- -bpp 16 :1` to give me a secondary, Loki- approved, X session. This fails, eventually dying with the last message before 'waiting for X server to shut down' being a warning that /dev/mouse can't get the status of the mouse fd (Invalid argument). I've got that set up as: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Mar 3 15:44 /dev/mouse -> /dev/gpmdata prw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 3 16:00 /dev/gpmdata Any suggestions on how to get this part working? -- SGI products are used to create the 'Bugs' that entertain us in theatres and at home. - SGI job posting Geek Code 3.1: GCS d? s+: a- C++ UL++$ P++>+++ L+++>++++ E- W--(++) N+ o+ !K w---$ O M- V?
