Thank yopu very much for your tip, it works !
I'm glad :)
The only thing that is still not perfect is that I get this huge mouse cursor, that resembles a greek temple ;-) Any idea what that might be ?
Hmmmm... as i told you, i've no an XFree86 4.0 here now to experiment, but take a look again to your XF86Config at section "input device"/"mouse" and to the doc of XFree86 4.0, there should be a README.mouse file somewhere. If you have installed from rpm try to do a: rpm -ql package_name_for_xfree86_4.0 | grep README.mouse if you have installed from sources just move into the parent directory where you've extracted the sources and try a 'find -name README.mouse'. In any case you even can try to do a 'locate README.mouse' if you've updated your file database (updatedb) after the installation process, there should not be many README.mouse files on your system. There was a manner to change the mouse cursor somewhere out there. Have a good one,
Moritz

Hello !
I'm running SuSE 6.3 on a Pentium II. I'm running it via loadlin since this is a work computer and windows is still the main OS :-(
I have a graphics card for which SuperProbe gives the following info:
S3 Trio 3D/2X (PCI Probed) Memory : 8192 kbytes RAMDAC : Generic 8-bit pseudo-color DAC (with 6-bit wide lookup tables (or in 6-bit mode))
I downloaded and installed the XFree 4.0 from the XFree.org site. But I can't find Trio 3D/2X in the graphics device choices, even though I read that it is supported in XFree 4.0. Even in the VGA-mode, I don't get anything else running than a color depth 1 (black and white !)
Could someone tell me what I need to do to configure X correctly ?
Thnaks !
Moritz
