Is this the most current document/wiki we can follow to |
| 4 |
perform an intial X(org) for 7.1? |

|

What is the best followup document to get 3D accelleration |
| 9 |
working? |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
If found this doucment that seems mostly related to |
| 13 |
Modular X upgrading: |
| 14 |
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Modular_Xorg |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Or is the current state of affairs, just wing it |
| 17 |
until it works? |

The video card was advertized as an ATI radeon 9600, but |
| 20 |
lspci says: |
| 21 |
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS480 |
| 22 |
[Radeon Xpress 200G Series] (prog-if 00 [VGA]) |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
make.conf has these lines: |
| 25 |
VIDEO_CARDS="radeon vesa" |
| 26 |
INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" |
| 27 |
|

I did manage to run |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
startX and TWM minimal fires up, without an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.....? |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Running: 'Xorg -configure' and then 'X -config /root/xorg.conf.new' |
| 34 |
fails, but no xorg.conf file is created...... I know I can parse |
| 35 |
the log files and I know I can build an org.conf file manually, |
| 36 |
I'm just thinking there is some neat script somewhere that I can run to |
| 37 |
generate a default(baseline) xorg.conf file? |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
Any insight as to the best(most recent) |
| 41 |
docs to follow is most welcone. |
