Hi
I have installed XFree 4.0, and started to play with multihead.
I have a Matrox G200 AGP card, and an old ATI Mach 64 card.
The Matrox works fine, but trying to get the ATI to work seems hard.
First I got:=20
(=3D=3D) ATI(1): Chipset: "ati".
(--) ATI(1): ATI 88800GX-D graphics controller detected.
(--) ATI(1): Chip type 4758 "GX", class 0, revision 0x01.
(--) ATI(1): PCI bus interface detected; sparse I/O base is 0x02EC.
(--) ATI(1): VGA Wonder registers at I/O port 0x01CE.
(--) ATI(1): ATI Mach64 adapter detected.
(--) ATI(1): ATI 68860 (Revision C) or similar RAMDAC detected.
(II) ATI(1): BIOS bus address: 0xEB000000.
(**) ATI(1): Depth 16, (--) framebuffer bpp 16
(EE) ATI(1): Depth 16 is not supported through this adapter.
Which is strange, 16 bpp should work for this one, I've used it before.
Anyway, I tried changing to 8 bpp:
(**) ATI(1): Depth 8, (--) framebuffer bpp 8
(=3D=3D) ATI(1): RGB weight 666
(=3D=3D) ATI(1): Default visual is PseudoColor
(=3D=3D) ATI(1): Using gamma correction (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
(EE) ATI(1): A linear aperture is not available through this adapter.
Ok, so I add 'Option "nolinear"':
(**) ATI(1): Option "Nolinear"
(=3D=3D) ATI(1): RGB weight 666
(=3D=3D) ATI(1): Default visual is PseudoColor
(=3D=3D) ATI(1): Using gamma correction (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
(EE) ATI(1): VGA is not available through this adapter.
What could be the problem? Anyone seen this?
