Subject: Problem: Xfree86, ATI Ultra Pro
Lines: 20
I am having problems running Xfree86 on a Gateway 2000 4DX-33 with an
ATI Graphics Ultra Pro Video card, Crystal Scan 1024NI monitor and
Microsoft mouse. When I run xinit I get the following:
XFree86 Version 1.1 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 5000)
Configured drivers:
VGA256 (256 colour SVGA):
et4000, et3000, pvga1, gvga, ati, tvga8900
XIO: fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) on X server ":0.0"
after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
The connection was probably broken by a server shutdown or KillClient.
I am quite sure the problem has to do something with the Xconfig file I
am using. I would greatly appreciate hearing from people who have
Xfree86 up and running on a similar machine. Mucho thanks in advance.
Natraj.
