XFree86 on a Presario...
Hi all!
I'm new here because of my new Presario 2156EA(ATI Radeon Mobility 64Mb shared DDR). I've XP and Red Hat 8.0 (2.4.18) on my lap. I have a "simple" question for you: what is the actual best driver solution for the video card to run with XFree86? Actually I've a vesa driver installed at 1024x768 24bit, but I've the problem that XServer restarts everytime I make a CTRL-ALT-F1...
Anyone with a better solution?
Many thanks to everyone.
Bye!

Re: XFree86 on a Presario...
Maybe updating your X server could help. If I'm not wrong, Rethat 8 uses XFree86 4.2. Updating to XFree 4.3 or installing Redhat 9 (which uses XFree 4.3) is a good idea.
By the way, redhat 9 solves a lot of troubles of redhat 8. I suggest to update your whole system, not only to get the X server work properly.

CTRL-ALT-F1 is supposed to take you to command or text mode.
Since Red Hat 9 started out as Red Hat 8.1(big bug fix), I think the upgrade wise whether it solves this problem or not.

Hello!
Check the option to upgrate the XFree to new one version like 4.3.0 (came with RH9)
When you press CTRL-ALT-F1 you enter to text mode if you press ALT-F7 it should return to the X back.
