RE: [techtalk] Good AGP Video Card?

2000-04-03 Thread Davida Schiff

Morning All,

Stephan, I use the Diamond Viper 550 AGP card with 16MB RAM and have had no
issues with it. The Viper 770 AGP (with 32 MB RAM) also works well.

Subject:[techtalk] Good AGP Video Card?

I'm looking for a decent AGP video card that will
work very well with 
XFree86 3.3.6.  I currently have a Voodoo Banshee that is
not fully 
supported even though the compatibility site says it's
supposed to 
be.  I've been fiddling with it for the past year now and
I'm tired of 
it.  I'm going to run to the store tomorrow, and I would
like to buy one 
that will just work (after I run XF86Setup of course).

Thanks,
Stephan

[techtalk] laptop issues.

2000-04-03 Thread Talia Greenman

*stepping from Lurkerdom...*
Ok here's the problem. I've got a dell latitude XPi 75D (I think there's
something before the 75)
I  need to know what's the best choice for video chipset and XFree86
modelines are.

It appears that It's got a cirrus logic CL-GD7543 and a 640x480 DSTN LCD
panel.

Okay... so I tried to rpm -Uvh all the stuff I downloaded (which wasn't
everything in the directory, but I got ~20 packages), and it said this: 
error: failed dependencies:
indent is needed by ORBit-devel-0.5.0-0.1
windowmanager is needed by gnome-core-1.1.6-0.1
libgdk_pixbuf.so.1 is needed by gnome-core-1.1.6-0.1
libgnomecanvaspixbuf.so.0 is needed by gnome-core-1.1.6-0.1
gtk+ >= 1.2.2 is needed by gnumeric-0.51-0.1
libxml.so.0 is needed by gnorpm-0.8-5

Does that mean I need to get an update of gnorpm?  And what does the
'indent' and 'windowmanager' mean?  (Should I include a listing of the
files I got, too?)

[techtalk] mutually incompatible files?

2000-04-03 Thread Lighthouse Keeper in the Desert Sun

I'm trying to get gnumeric to upgrade.  Still.  SO I tried installing some
packages that don't look gnumeric-related (gnome-games, actually, and
esound.)  So, I try to install bonobo, and it tells me that there is a
conflict with the file /usr/share/gnome/apps/Games/gnomine.desktop in
instlling bonobo or gnome-games.  And I can't install libglade without
bonobo.  And gnorpm-0.85 needs libxml.so.0 (earlier xml version, Ig uess).
So I should update gnorpm.  What do I do about this bonobo/games problem?
It's also required for gnumeric.

No idea, sorry.

It says you don't have a windowmanager installed which seems unlikely,
but maybe you don't.  If you don't I would recommend either Sawmill,
WindowMaker, or Enlightenment.

You need gdk-pixbuf, preferably 0.6.0.

You need gtk+ that is above 1.2.2.  I would suggest upgrading to 1.2.7

You need the Gnome XML library.

You can get all of these packages from ftp.gnome.org except the window
manager.  Have fun with Gnome!

What version of redhat are you updating?  You might be better off getting
the latest CD and doing a complete system upgrade. =)

[techtalk] 2 sound cards under Linux

2000-04-03 Thread Derek Arnold

Hey all!

 I was wondering if any of you had experience with dual sound cards with
Linux...or if such a thing is possible.  

Thanks,

Re: [techtalk] 2 sound cards under Linux

2000-04-03 Thread Eric Baudais

I think it's possible provided you have the enough interrupts, dmas, and
the correct io memory not allocated to something else.  Right now I'm
having a issues cause I'm running out of lower end io memory in the 0x200
to 0x330 range.  I see the only issue is io memory usage because some
cards want the same block of io memory.

Hope this helps.
