Toshiba Tecra 8100

2000-10-24 Thread Heiko Romahn
Hi there, I got a Toshiba Tecra 8100 with a S3 GraphicAdapter. And everybody I know told me thats very difficult to install and configure X on that machine. Is anybody experienced with this project? Thanks in advance Heiko

I got X working on mine using 3.3.6 and the SVGA server found here: http://www.probo.com/timr/savagemx.html If you use 3.3.6 and that server you should be fine. You can also use frame buffering as well - for details on how to do that you can go to: http://wtsupport.metatec.net/technotes/redhat6.

thank you all for the response! Now I know there are blackbox, fvwm2, sawfish, and I found a super small one flwm. Most of them are only in Debian package, which need dpkg to install. I hesitate to reinstall everything from my debian CD. Is there a way to install them in to my exsting Redhat box
