Hey...
This is a long one. I am new at Freebsd and have some questions about a
ppp connection and X window system with a Trident 9685 ProVidia 4MB card
and X 3.3.1.
I am trying to dial into my ISP and editted my ppp.conf file and have
this for the file:
default:
set device /dev/cuaa1
set speed 38400
set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK
\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"
ISP:
set phone "number"
set login "TIMEOUT 10 \"\" \"\" login:-\\r-login: username word: pass"
set timeout 120
set ifaddr 0 0
add 0 0 HISADDR
>From then on after I type ppp I get:
# ppp
User process PPP. Written by Toshiharu OHNO.
Using interface: tun0
ppp ON myname>dial ISP
Dial attempt 1 of 1
Phone: number
Dial OK!
ModemDial: Login Failed
and then I have to quit the ppp.
Am I missing something major or is there some fine tuning just needed?
For my X windows I am using the Trident 9685 ProVidia with 4MB ram and I
use XF86Setup I use a serial mouse, a conservative monitor setting, and
get a server to start. When I use SuperProbe this is the output:
first video: Super-VGA
Chipset: Trident ProVidia 9685 (PCI probed)
Memory: 2048 Kbytes (even though I have a 4 MB
card)
RAMDAC: Trident Built-in 15/16/24-bit DAC
(with 6-bit wide lookup tables (or in 6-bit mode))
Is there anything wrong with this?
In XF86Setup I specified the SVGA server (which it says it does support
in the readme file) with the tgui96xx chipset.
This is the output I get after I type startx and the server shuts down
(doesnt start):
Sorry, but this is all I can see on the screen!
(--) SVGA: Using Trident programmable clocks
(**) SVGA: chipset tgui96xx
(--) SVGA: videoram: 4096K (here is does recognize the 4 MB)
(**) SVGA: Using 8bpp, Depth 8, Color weight: 666
(--) SVGA: Maximum allowed dot-clock: 135.000 MHz
(**) SVGA: Mode "640x480": mode clock = 25.180
(--) SVGA: There is no mode "320x240" from list of valid modes
(--) SVGA: Virtual resolution set to 640x480
(--) SVGA: Generic Speedups selected (flags=0x30)
(--) SVGA: Using Linear Frame Buffer at 0x0fe800000, Size 4MB
(--) SVGA: Using Graphics Engine
(--) SVGA: Using 1024 byte display width
(--) SVGA: Using XAA (XFree86 Acceleration Architecture)
(--) SVGA: XAA: Solid Filled rectangles
(--) SVGA: XAA: screen-toscreen copy
(--) SVGA: XAA: 8x8 pattern fill (not usable)
(--) SVGA: XAA: CPU to screen color expansion (bitmap, TE/NonTE
imagetext)
(--) SVGA: XAA: Using 8 128x128 areas for pixmap caching
(--) SVGA: XAA: Caching tiles and non-transparent stipples
(--) SVGA: XAA: General lines and segments
waiting for X server to shut down
Even when I put in the option "noaccel", then the last line is
(--) SVGA: XAA: Bypassing XF86 Acceleration Architecture (or
something like that)
waiting for X server to shut down.
Any suggestions? Pointers? Jokes? I am open to any and all support
and I would really appppppreciate it.
