I have the slackware 3.1.0 with 2.0.27 Linux kernel and I am trying to configure the xwindow to work with my video card : Trident 3D Image 9750 (PCI/AGP V4457 a) with 4 Meg of memory. I tried differents configurations that didn't work. I need any information that can help me to make the Xwindows works ok.

You will need to at least XFree86 3.3.2 or later, which you can get from http://www.xfree86.org. You must use the SVGA server and if you need further help, you can try checking out http://www.suse.org, I think that they have modified an XFree86 server for that card. You could also look at the documentation at http://www.xfree86.org or for a possible quick setup, you could try http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Foothills/8328/ Good Luck -- Norman Jordan -- Electrical Engineering Student The Linux Resource Center --------------8B971D3C0895C84560F827F8 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> Nelson Custódio da Silveira Neto wrote: <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE>I have the slackware 3.1.0 with 2.0.27 Linux kernel and I am trying to <BR>configure the <BR>xwindow to work with my video card : Trident 3D Image 9750 (PCI/AGP V4457 a) <BR>with 4 Meg of memory.
