[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, We are having a rather frustrating time getting the video component of X to work on 2.2.7 on an OmniBook 4100 laptop. The video on board is Neomagic; as shipped with W95, the screen runs 1024 x 768 at 75 Hz vertical refresh. Using XF86Setup, we haven't been able to get a combination that works - either the Xserver does not come up or it comes up with 'double' pixels (large, square pixels with the text mostly unreadable, chopped off on the right side of the screen). Please advise. /Steve [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=text/html;charset=iso-8859-1 http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content='"MSHTML 4.72.3110.7"' name=GENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT color=#000000>Hi,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000>We are having a rather frustrating time getting the video component of X to work on 2.2.7 on an OmniBook 4100 laptop.
