The Motherboard is a FIC AD11(AMD 761/VIA 686B chipset). Vid-card is a radeon 32M ddr model. Whenever I startx with the radeon driver, the machine hangs, forced to use reset switch, not even C-A-Del works. But with the generic vga driver I get all of 16 colors at less than 640x480. Here are relevant dmesg lines: agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 94M agpgart: Unsupported AMD chipset (device id: 700e), you might want to try agp_try_unsupported=1. agpgart: no supported devices found. What does agp_try_unsupported mean? Where do I set this setting? and relevant lspci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]: Unknown device 700e (rev 12) Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort+ >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 32 set Region 0: Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M] Region 1: Memory at e3100000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K] Region 2: I/O ports at d000 [disabled] [size=4] Capabilities: [a0] AGP version 2.0 Status: RQ=15 SBA+ 64bit- FW+ Rate=421 Command: RQ=0 SBA- AGP- 64bit- FW- Rate= 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]: Unknown device 700f Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- Status: Cap- 66Mhz+ UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 32 set Bus: primary=00, secondary=01, subordinate=01, sec-latency=32 I/O behind bridge: 0000c000-0000cfff Memory behind bridge: e0000000-e1ffffff Prefetchable memory behind bridge: d8000000-dfffffff BridgeCtl: Parity- SERR+ NoISA+ VGA+ MAbort- >Reset- FastB2B- Also attached are the full dmesg and lspci output. Please help, as it is I am force to use windows to get anything done (that too needed updated drivers before it would work properly).
