Right, the install script doesn't work. > Anyway, the standard mga driver from X.Org should work as well (without > the Hallib of course). I moved the mga_hal out of the way and did a dpkg -i xserver-xorg-6.9 deb to try and use the default driver. I thought what was happening is that I upgraded to 6.9 which left the mga_hal untouched but upgraded mga_drv. So by moving the mga_hal I should have been trying the standard mga driver that comes with xserver-xorg. > Are you using framebuffer?

That's what I was trying. But I xauth was not allowing that. I need to refresh my memory how xauth works. -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
