I have a Pentiun 90Mhz running in a Triton board. I'm trying to configure the XFree86 to run on my system, but the monitor is always out of sync. The only mode that works is 320x200x256. I have a Samsung SyncMaster 3 monitor and a Trident AGI 9440 PCI video card. This card is VESA compatible and works fine with any resolution with OS/2, Windows and any game running on DOS. It has 1024 Kbytes of memory. The monitor supports the horizontal refresh rate of 31.5 and 35.5. The vertical refesh rate for each resolution is: 60Mhz for 640x480 60Mhz for 800x600 87Mhz, interlaced for 1024x768. When I run xinit, it displays the following messages: Unknown chipset 0x5e (I think the number is 0x5e, but I'm not sure) Using builtin mode 320x200 If I use anything on virtual screen section on XF86Config, except 320x200 the monitor becomes out of sync. I've tried to use the Ctrl+Alt+KP_+ to switch between defined modes (1024x768, 800x600, 640x480), but it doesn't make any change at all. I've looked at cards database in xf86config and it doesn't have my video card neither a generic VESA compatible SVGA, so I don't know what to do to make it work on my system. My questions are: 1 - What is this builtin mode 320x200 xinit is using ? 2 - How can I make XFree86 work on my system ? Thanks in advance. -- Rodrigo de La Rocque Ormonde Confederacao Nacional do Transporte e-mail: ormonde@cnt.org.br
