Hey there all,
You have been warned... This is a LONG message ;)
I have just installed xfree86311 ( the version distributed with
2.0.5) on a machine and I am getting a strange response I've never
seen on any other server. It is dying without a fatal: error message
or anything like that and I'm at a loss as to why... The server
starts up, Opens the display (with a nice 'lil ol cross for my mouse
cursor) stays open for 3 or for seconds and then closes ( and all I
see on the command line is : waiting for X server to shut down..)
Oh : the card is a vesa cirrus with the CL-GD5430 Chipset, The
monitor is an ultra cs1404
server output and Xf86 below..
Thanks a bunch
Tony
