I've verified this with MS Windoze. Unfortunately, under XFree86 3.1.1 the clocks all get reported back 28.3 28.3 28.3 28.3 28.3 28.3 28.3 28.3, which is probably true. No doubt some part of the driver under MS Windoze does some magic incantation to get the 45MHz clock for the interlaced 1024x768. The LCD Controller is a Chips 655xx. Any one have any clues what might be necessary to get 1024x768x256 up and running under XF86? I've tried overridding the detected values of 28.3, with 45, but there really does seem to be 28.3 on all the clock ports. The LapTop is utterly generic, which by the way is running FreeBSD 021095 SNAP quite nicely including a DLINK PCMCIA ethernet card and TDK PCMCIA modem. The Soundblaster (2.1) works, though I haven't gotten the FM stuff detected. What places other than 0x388 are used for the FM synthesizer chips. No RTF(owners)M doesn't help. I read through it about 9 times so far. Thanks for any help, Brian Litzinger brian@easynet.com
