PLUG'ers I know there are some Gentoo pilots and some X gurus here, so I thought I would ask here before going over to xfree-newbies or gentoo-users. I have a gentoo server that I have never run X on. No reason to run a GUI on a server. ;~) Well, now I have a honeypot project where I need to create a bunch of virtual machines. I want to experiment with VMWare for this, so I am moving to a new server and giving up this gentoo server for this (sweet) project. Heh. Now, the server has the following video card. # lspci -vv -s 01:00.0 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X (rev 5c) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Pro Turbo AGP 2X Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping+ SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- SERR- [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [50] AGP version 1.0 Status: RQ=256 Iso- ArqSz=0 Cal=0 SBA+ ITACoh- GART64- HTrans- 64bit- FW- AGP3- Rate=x1,x2 Command: RQ=1 ArqSz=0 Cal=0 SBA- AGP- GART64- 64bit- FW- Rate= I already emerged xfree and ati-drivers. # emerge -p xfree ati-drivers These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild R ] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r3 [ebuild R ] media-video/ati-drivers-3.2.8 When I run `XFree86 -configure`, it aborts with: Fatal server error: no screens found The log at /var/log/XFree86.0.log is FULL of messages, but they are all Informational (II), except these: (WW) Open APM failed (/dev/apm_bios) (No such file or directory) (II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0 (EE) No devices detected. I doubt the Warning (WW) about APM matters. I do not have APM support configured on this server. I think the last two lines describe the problem. I do not appear to have a driver suitable for the ATI card it is probing on PCI 01:00.0. What am I missing? ...Kevin
