X - AdiProvista VD-484 and S3Virge GX/2
Hi all, Am having difficulties configuring the above into a Potato box. I believe the card isn't the problem (ie 525 on the list in xconfigure) 4Mb Card I believe hsync = 30 - 54 vsync = 50-60 If anyone can point me somewhere it would be a great help- cheers -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: deleting directory
rm -rf directory is definately way to go ... though before you press enter count to 5 and ensure you haven't typed rm -rf / (potential to say goodbye to everything ) If unsure try rm -rif /path/directory at least you may save yourself a small heartache. cheers >>> "Oyvind A.

X Not starting ? S3 Virge GX/2
Hi all, I have a potato box and trying to install X Current Config is S3 Virge GX/2 4mb Card and an ADI ProVista VD 548 Monitor (Which I can't seem to get specs for ...) No valid Modes seem to come through and when I run XF86_S3 it falls over. Any ideas?

X (Svirge GX/2 Or Monitor)? problem
Hi, I have been trying every where but keep hitting dead ends for the past 4 - 5 months... in other areas on web etc (Hack, hack, hack) (I accept I don't know what I'm doing but I posted a log file below) I have an ADI Provist monitor CD 484 (Which I can't find any specs for ... So how can I determine the Hsync / Vsync - even the readme requires you to know some specs and there is no documentation on this monitor) I have taken xdm out of /etc/init.d and since then I don't get a log file any more for errors... can anyone help? I have potato installed and also woody available but I thought I should at least get something working. What should I do?

Woody - New Install Chroot Failure
Hi, Have started with fresh machine and with Debian 3.0 Pressed disks. I have tried various configurations with partitions on a 1.4G drive and still getting stuck with various stages of install. ALL msg say: Failure trying to run: chroot /target dpkg --force-depends --install /var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_3.0.2_i386.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/base-passwd_3.4.1_i386.deb Console windows say similar. Could this be caused by a dirty CD? (Have cleaned it several times. Am lost and really want my woody to work. Any ideas anywhere?
