Hi all, I am trying to configure my Matrox Millenium II on my machine and it complains that the SVGA server is not installed. I am really surprised that 2.5 giganyte of software doesn't include the SVGA server. Is it in someplace that I can't find or is it really not included with the distribution?

Thanks for taking time to answer my question. I guess I didn't state it clearly. I have no problem installing it. But I have to find it first. At this moment my machine is not connected to internet. I am just wondering if the software is shipped with the 4 CDs that I got from SuSE, where is it? In which directory of which CD? Thanks again, Ramin

The software for xfree86 was shipped with 5.2. What you do is go in yast to install packages... once your there, you go to change/create installation... to go the category called "x" and look through the list to see if the Xserver you need is installed... follow the instructions for installation are rerun your configuration program for X (which may not be needed, but just in case...) Good luck...

All,
I don't know if this is the proper list, but here goes. I am trying to install
kde beta4, and i installed all of the rpm's and the qt 1.33 rpm, but i cannot
get it to work correctly (i did install them in the correct order). when i
enter startx, it loads fvwm95 (or fvwm2, i forget which), and when i hit the
button for other windows managers, it doesn't show kde4 like it did for kde 1
(which i uninstalled). when i type startkde, i am given the following:
kcontrol: cannot connect to X server
kwm: cannot connect to X server
kbgndwm: cannot connect to X server
Using old audio server with talk id 1
kfm: cannot connect to X server
krootwm: cannot connect to X server
kwm: cannot connect to X server
kpanel: cannot connect to X server
I would appreciate any help that anyone could give.
