Hello, Joe, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
The server doesn't start; stderr shows the following (captured with |
| 4 |
"xterm 2> test.log" |
| 5 |
This is regardless of the setting of "UseFBDev" |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Following this is the generated xorg.conf. I see a strange "modeline" |
| 8 |
entry for 720x400 -- |
| 9 |
could that be the problem? I believe that in the past I've deleted |
| 10 |
this and even tried to replace |
| 11 |
it with a 1024x768 line, but truthfully I can't remember any more. |
| 12 |
