Okay, this might not, be helpful but I just want to do a sanity check here: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
1. Check your xorg.log and make sure you are using the xorg.conf you think |
| 16 |
you are. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
2. Make sure the required kernel module is in place. It can be loaded by |
| 19 |
modprobe and that action confirmed by lsmod. It will be somewhere |
| 20 |
under /lib/modules (sounds like you've already done this). |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
3. Make sure you aren't confusing a kernel module/driver with a X11 driver. |
| 23 |
Generally the later depends on the former, but they are provided by |
| 24 |
different packages and located differently on the filesystem -- and |
| 25 |
generally kernel modules are not listed by name in xorg.conf. |
