Helpful People,
I've recently installed FC2 at home, and I'm having some small problems. ~ Actually only one BIG problem.
History: - -------- The machine is a dual PIII (old slot 1 style) using a Tyan Tiger 133 (VIA chipset) motherboard. It has all the extras... SCSI card, CDROMs, DVD, CD-RW, Tape Backup, etc. The video card is an ATI Radeon 64MB VIVO card. (This is the problem)
Recently Fixed: - --------------- I was unable to boot.... It would always try to enter runlevel 5. Finally got fixed and now I can boot to a command prompt and edit files. ~ The rescue CD was OK, but when I tried using vi to edit a file it locked up. Anyway, fixed now. I'm running runlevel 3 until I get the X thing sorted out.
Problem: - -------- 1) X complains about not being able to load agpgart, but if I look in dmesg, I see entries about agpgart. agpgart is not listed as a module, is this OK?
2) I've had problems before with the video card. Mostly with Windows, and last time with Linux I set the default video mode to be 800x600 and I got the 1024x768 my card supports. I tried rotating the entries again making 800x600 the first entry, but that does not work. Can someone send me a copy of their ATI cards settings to compare against the ones that where generated automatically by the install? ~ I'd think that by now the old ATI video card would be supported better by now.
Help Please, James Kosin
