RE: GLUG: Fw: troubleshoot

["john longland" <johnl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had the same:

 

        Rh 6.0 distro

        Sis 6326 AGP 8 Meg

 

        Solved the problem by fiddling the XF86Config file:

 

        adding:   

    

Option "noaccel"

Option "fast_ram"

Option "pci_burst_on"

Option "ext_eng_queue"

Option "no_bitblt"

Option "no_imageblt"

Option "sw_cursor"

VideoRam 8192

 

Also visit the redhat site and surf for more detail on this

All the best !
