Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG We got a batch of new systems that have Diamond Multimedia Viper II Z200 video cards. They use the S3 Savage2000 chipset. An office mate got his running X on Red Hat Linux after a bit of struggle, but even when I copy the video settings from his XF86Config, I get bad scan rates in FreeBSD-STABLE (I used the 20000714 snapshot). We are using identical hardware. XFree86 complains that the chipset is unrecognized, leading me to believe that I need to update my driver: SVGA: Unknown S3 chipset: chip_id = 0x9102 rev. 2 SVGA: chipset: generic Do I need to be trying to find a more recent driver, or do I need to keep looking for a mistake in my XF86Config? - Bob -- ********************************************************* Bob Johnson Senior Systems Programmer bob@eng.ufl.edu College of Engineering 523 Weil Hall 352-392-9217 Office University of Florida 352-392-7063 Fax Gainesville, FL 32611 ********************************************************* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
