"XFree86 -probe" & "XFree86 -scanpci" now work and detect the video card and suggest the driver properly. However, 'xf86cfg' still locks up the system when it scans for the proper driver. "xf86cfg -textmode" generates a proper 'XF86Config' file but running 'startx' locks up the system. It's strange that "pciconf -lv" sees my Permedia2 & s3 Trio64 V2/DX at pci 0:2:0 (which it is) where as X sees it as pci 1:2:0. -cheers, S.C.

Are there pre-set tests? Logs to capture? Debugging switches to set on during compile? I have a dual 533au AS1200, 512m total memory, with all the default cards plus an SB!Live audio card and 6 Seagate 10k rpm scsi disks... I also have a 2048kps cable connection if you need access to my system. needless to say, 5.2RC2 updated from 5.1 via source is working perfectly... better than 5.0/5.1 with that annoying floppy disk bug. -cheers, S.C.

Examination of the XF86Config file from the RedHat implementation suggest X calls some custom loadable objects that are not part of the standard X distribution. If these objects can be incorporated in the standard X tree they could solve the as1200 X problem.

KDE would run for a few minutes, then the machine would halt and reboot. I was using a S3 Trio64 board with 2Meg memory on it. I got a Matrox Millennium II with 4Meg (on ebay for $12) and now the idiot thing works.
