Hi, My Video card is ATI Radeon Xpress. This is not working, so changed Radeon to vesa using sax2 -m 0=vesa. If any external X application is being launched, it is not honouring the VESA changed xorg.conf file. TIA Jose John Andersen wrote:

Hi,

I have installed SUSE 10.1 on a PC which have ASUS P5 RD1-VM motherboard. Installation went on fine, but X failed to comeup on reboot. Then I used the command "sax2 -m 0=vesa" the X was successfully come up. If I use any other X based application which need the complete DISPLAY, failed and shown the same screen what was seen before the sax2 -m 0=vesa" command.

The program used is "dangerdeep"

Kindly someone give pointers how to fix the display.

Any comments are appreciated.

You might at least tell us what kind of video card is in use. It doesn't what the mother board is if you are having a video problem.

Thankyou John for the help. Infact my xorg.conf have the entry like this Section "Device" BoardName "Radeon XPRESS 200 5A61 (PCIE)" BusID "1:5:0" Driver "vesa" Identifier "Device[0]" VendorName "ATI" EndSection whereas, after running the sax2 -m 0=vesa, then a file copied as xorg.conf.saxsave have the entry as Section "Device" BoardName "Radeon XPRESS 200 5A61 (PCIE)" BusID "1:5:0" Driver "radeon" Identifier "Device[0]" VendorName "ATI" EndSection From Yast2, if I go to the Hardware->Graphic Controller, X started, but without a proper display.

At a command console, type lspci and post that output here so people can know exactly what type of video card you have.

I go to the ATI site http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html and i see no card named Radeon Xpress. I see about a couple dozen cards named Ration Xyyy (where yyy is some number),

Perhaps you can visit the page above and find the SPECIFIC linux drivers for your card and the directions for installation.

Follow on this; http://www.suse.de/~sndirsch/ati-installer-HOWTO.html AFAIK, by the ATI's instruction, the vidoe driver remains "radeon".

I'd guess that he means "PCI Express." Fred -- MickySoft, the ultimate corporate parasite. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
