-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all,
Problem: (work) I have a Compaq Deskpro 5200MMX 200M Pentium machine - lots of software on the disk, lots of users. The disk was originally in a Compaq Deskpro P166 - I upgraded hardware and memory to a "new" machine with new CD-RW etc. The video card on the Compaq 5200MMX is essentially barely supported under X. The card is a hacked S3 Virge which advertises itself as an S3 Virge DX/GX. It has 2M of memory. Under XFree 3.3.6 it would work with the "old" S3 server. It is not, as far as I know, supported under XFree 4.0. Card on the P166 was an embedded Cirrus Logic card (5446) working under XFree 4 There is a known series of bugs with this S3Virge card under X: it garbles text consoles, is unstable etc. - I did, however, try to reinstall XFree 3.3.6 to no effect. I attempted to remove 3.36 packages and removed the card. Losing patience, I installed a Matrox Millenium 2MB card and the XFree 4 servers. Now, I get an immediate error starting X "can't open socket - - make sure no other X is running" or words to that effect. I may have a "mixture" of 3.3.6 and 4.0.9 packages. Help me clear this one up to restore my X please!
