Hi, i already posted this on x11 but hey i really need help so please =
don't hold it against me...

I have an acer aspire 1350LC with a via chipset for the graphics. I got =
x working once on 4.9, same laptop when i had been messing around with =
4.4.0 and ports so after a while it was a really broken install but =
suddenly it started working using the auto configure thing, first thing =
i tried to do was to write my own conf file which failed over and over =
again. I can't use the auto configure thing since it produced a very low =
resolution, even if i could figure out how to use auto configure with =
xfree and increase the res i doubt i'd be able to reproduce last time on =
5.2.1 now because it was all a large mess of ports and bloody xfree86 =
guts all over the place.

Anyways the situation now is that i get no errors to stdout. Checking =
the logfile i see that everything is going just fine until it reads the =
hsync value, this is what it looks like:

(--) via(0): No DDC signal
(II) via(0): Monitor0: Using hsync value of 31.50 kHz
(II) via(0): Monitor0: Using vrefresh range of 50.00-90.00 Hz

(II) via(0): Not using default mode "640x350" (hsync out of range)

(II) via(0): Not using mode "1024x768" (no mode of this name)
(--) via(0): Virtual size is 640x480 (pitch 640)
(**) via(0): *Default mode "640x480": 25.2 MHz (scaled from -1206751.2 =

After this it goes on with loading a few modules, showing me some =
resource ranges after preInit, mapping frambuffer and exits after a few =
of these messages.

(II) via(0): vgaHWGetIOBase: hwp->IOBase is 0x03d0, hwp->PIOOffset is =
0x0000
(=3D=3D) via(0): Write-combining range (0xa0000,0x10000) was already =
clear
