It seems to me that this is a broken kernel driver that can't init for some reason framebuffer and fallbacks to 640x480-60. So on my OpenSUSE 10.3 with S3 Trio64 framebuffer - broken, X11 - broken.

That's for the OpenSUSE, right, but look deeper into the kernel sources: 10.2 - 2.6.18, 10.3 - 2.6.22. In 2.6.18 there was different drivers for S3Trio and Virge - S3triofb.c and virgefb.c In 2.6.22 all s3 drivers merged into one file s3fb.c PS. What does this numbers mean? 0.5.0/0.4.1 ? X.org drivers? I'm talking about framebuffer kernel driver. SaX uses framebuffer by default! And that's why you can't start X server! I've attached some logs, don't have 10.2 right now so i'll post 10.2 logs later. So i'll try today to downgrade kernel on 10.3 to 2.18 and see if it helps. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Why did you set this back to Critical and NEEDINFO to Uwe?
It seems that Dimitriy wants a comment from me. I tested the issue again with 16bit. Same result, blank screen. The issue was originally posted as a 16bit-Problem. According to Dimitriy the s3fb driver worked with openSUSE 10.2 so it seems to me that this is an issue of the version 10.3. I didn't test the s3 driver for my on board grafics on open SUSE 10.2. My problem is definitely a 16bit problem. If there is any setting what makes my s3 driver to run with 16bit in 10.3 please post it, Stefan. It is not necessary to spent time for testing with 24bit for me. That's why I will add now "and 16bit" in the subject. Because I think that's the information what Dimitriy wanted to know I will change the status to "ASSIGNED". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I now see that your card has only 1 MB of RAM. Could you try these options one by one? Option "slow_dram" Option "slow_edodram" Option "slow_vram" Only a wild guess. If this doesn't help either we'll switch to vesa for S3 Trio64V2 for next openSUSE release. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=336302#c34 --- Comment #34 from Uwe Galle <UweGalle@gmx.de> 2007-10-31 09:45:56 MST --- I have a new issue here since I tried the first option "slow_dram". At first, this option didn't change anything. Blank screen after activation of s3 driver. But now it is even not possible to configure the original driver with SaX2. If I start SaX2 from textmode screen activated by Ctrl-Alt-F1 the screen falls into powersave mode and no mouse movement or key combination can bring back the system - except Ctrl-Alt-Del via reboot. If I start SaX2 -r from the Gnome desktop (without -r SaX2 does not recognize the graphics card and does not set the s3 driver if started from Gnome) SaX2 itself switches to the textmode screen and waits there indefinitely. In this case I can switch back to Gnome an stop SaX2 with Ctrl-C. Then I can continue normally. I switched off the server and plugged out the power supply because this can set back hardware issues sometimes. But the new behaviour of SaX2 persists. That's why I could not try the other two options. I attach the usual files again, perhaps you can see something there. This time, of course, you will find the vesa driver in xorg.conf. But even with this driver the behaviour of SaX2 is as described. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Please just add these options to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf one by one with your favorite editor and test if this helps. Best would be to do this in runlevel 3, start the session with "startx" and then kill the Xserver again with Ctlt-Alt-BS. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

done. You still can try to configure it with "sax2 -r -m 0=s3". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
