Kind regards Eberhard 10.2/32bit/Ati Radeon 9200, fglrx deleted and back to Radeon driver, once again.
how to make a backup if i wanna do an experiment?
what do you mean with back to back to Radeon driver... is it the way to get compiz works on my box.
br,

Hi tambun, in this case it is very easy. Although I made a full image of my / partition, jsut in case, it turned out that I simply needed to restore my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to it's original state. So it may be working like this: 1. become root 2. cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.radeon.working.ok Then install whatever ATI driver you think might be promising. If you are "rewarded" with a blank X screen and nothing working at all, like I was: 1. ctl-F1 to the first console, if that does not work: alt-ctrl-F1 2. login as root 3. init 3 to change back to textmode 4. go to the X11 directory: cd /etc/X11 5. copy your backup file back: cp xorg.conf.radeon.working.ok xorg.conf 6. init 5 to change back to graphical X login Then you should be done with in fact reverting to where you started from. Not nice, not rewarding but at lest, I could continue to do my work. Btw. In the meantime, I got an Nvidia 7600 GS AGP silent card for a song (in exchange to some Linux help that I did for a friend) and I cannot wait to implement it tomorrow. Saying bye, bye to ATI will be a day that I will surely celebrate. ;-)) Kind regards Eberhard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
