Hello,
I am having trouble with Sax2 on an SiS6326 card: when I start it up, it says that the current setup is for XFree86-3, would I like to setup XFree86-4? (note: I have installed the latest sax2-4.2-23 and xf86-4.0.2-5 from ftp.suse.com/put/suse-updates/) and it asks if I want 3D support set up (it doesn't matter if I tell it yes or no, I get the same problem) after that it starts up like normal but I cannot see any text or any buttons. I know it's working because if I hit enter I get another "faceless" dialog box, but I can't set it up that way, and have to stop SaX2 with [CTRL]+[ALT]+[BACKSPACE]. I tried sax (original) and it works fine.
Isn't this I bug? I also tried the sax2 -f option, no different.
What do you think? Anyone else got a card like this?

I can't believe this still hasn't been fixed in Xfree86 4x. I used to use this card on a MB I had a couple of years ago and to avoid the anomalies you name, you had to turn off acceleration in the config file. Try doing that (I think the key word is no_accel) and see if that helps. Don -- ======================================== Donald E.
