So, can't just replace /etc/X11/xorg.conf from gentoo with the knoppix |
| 62 |
version :( |

"AFAIK this will work fine, but I have never tried it. You could copy |
| 68 |
it to some other name, like /etc/X11/xorg.conf.knoppix, and then use |
| 69 |
"X -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf.knoppix" to test it. Also watch out for |
| 70 |
ModulePath; you may have to remove or fix it if it shows up in the |
| 71 |
Knoppix config file. It should point to /usr/lib/xorg/modules." |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
from <http://hawat.thufir.googlepages.com/xorg.conf.knoppix.txt> |
| 74 |
a few lines: |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
15 Section "Files" |
| 77 |
16 RgbPath "/usr/share/X11/rgb" |
| 78 |
17 ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules" |
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
so that, at least, seems ok. |
| 81 |
|
| 82 |
I'm operating under the assumption that it's a problem with xorg.conf, |
| 83 |
of course. |
| 84 |
|
| 85 |
The knoppix version isn't working due to something with RGB. |
