I have a 9600 which is working with the attached XF86Config-4 file, perhaps |
| 17 |
that will drop in and work for you. Changing to 15 bit color was one of the |
| 18 |
important parts if I recall correctly, and it took a longgg time to get it to |
| 19 |
go at all. Good Luck. |

If that doesnt work, send the output of |
| 22 |
# lspci -v |
| 23 |
and a copy of your config |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
And If anyone knows how to fix a screen where the image is bleeding off the |
| 26 |
edges of the monitor by about 20 pixels in each direction, I'd appreciate |
| 27 |
some help immensely. |
