I've upgraded from FC1 to FC2 on my Sony C1VFK laptop/notebook. Everything works fine except the X server for the ATI 3D Rage P/M video controller. (I get a large blue oval on the screen, which gradually disappears, leaving a bright but blank screen.) X is running OK, as I can see the display on another machine. (I'm currently running knode on the "bad" machine after ssh-ing in from another identical laptop running FC1.) So I take it the problem lies with the "ati" X server. Is there a more basic VGA server which I could substitute? I tried going back to the FC! XFree86 program, but that didn't work - there were library incompatibilities, I think. Any suggestions or advice gratefully received. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
