Hi, |
| 25 |
Have you enabled SiS chipset support in your kernel config? |
| 26 |
If not, do it (better as a module) as you'll be able to see if it's |
| 27 |
loaded. |
| 28 |
Afterward you should change xorg.conf to enable it, but i don't know how |
| 29 |
(not using SiS video). |
| 30 |
Another way is to try out Xorg-7.0 (just unmasked and in testing), there |
| 31 |
must be some package for SiS-support (see below): |
| 32 |
* x11-drivers/xf86-video-sis |
| 33 |
Available versions: 0.8.1.3 |
| 34 |
Installed: none |
| 35 |

Description: X.Org driver for sis cards |

Read the docs first ! |
