Hi everyone.
I've been experiencing a problem with the above combination on my computer
and would like to know if I'm the only one and if there is a solution.
I have a P166 w/ 128Mb RAM and the above hardware. When I start up my
computer in xdm the initial screen comes up perfectly. I login and if I
exit my X-window session I get a screen full of virtical red lines and my
console locks up. This also happened to a friend who is running XFree86
3.3.2 with the same card using Linux while I'm using it with FreeBSD
3.0-current. We both are using the XF86_S3V accellerated driver. We both
would like to use xdm but this problem doesn't let us. Is this a problem
with the driver or the hardware, ie. the S3 ViRGE/DX video card?
