Hi list, is there a different hand ling of fonts inside xfd and xterm ? I need a LARGE font for demo system. with xfd i selected: -ibm-courier-bold-i-normal--250-1808-100-100-m-1500-iso8859-1 calling xterm -fn <fontname> causes a segfault (after eating memory). I have installed SUSE 10.0 vanilla. can someone verify my results, please ? re, walter my original error message: xterm -fn -ibm-courier-bold-i-normal--250-1808-100-100-m-1500-iso8859-1 _XF86BigfontQueryFont: could not attach shm segment Speicherzugriffsfehler (segfault)

Problems with current ATI-graphics dirvers

Dear listmembers, I want to inform you that I was finally successful in installing the latest (8.18.8) ATI-drivers on my system. Problem: when starting sax after the rpm-install, the screen went colory but useless (though looking somewhat nice :-))) ) To resolve this, I had to change the startup - line from sax2 -r -m -0=fglrx -b /usr/share/doc/packages/fglrx/sax2-profile to sax2 --lowres -r -m -0=fglrx -b /usr/share/doc/packages/fglrx/sax2-profile from then on, the configuration became possible. Just for your information, it might be of help for someone. Now I can happily use 1600x1200 without problems - as I did with the 8.14.13 driver release. System: Tyan Tiger 2460 SMP motherboard, ATI 9600XT graphics card, 21'' Elsa Ecomo 750 monitor. SuSE 9.3. Take care Dieter Jurzitza -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | \ /\_/\ | | ~x~ |/-----\ / \ /- \_/ ^^__ _ / _ ____ / <°°__ \- \_/ | |/ | | || || _| _| _| _| if you really want to see the pictures above - use some font with constant spacing like courier! :-) -----------------------------------------------------------
