SW 13.1 X86 have they abandoned openchrome driver for X by now?

Hi.

Seeking any enlightenment re the subject line. Thanks.

openchrome worked fine on Slackware 12.2 on my father's emachine box (I think I had to build the driver if I remember correctly)

But now, SW 13.1 and a friend's Win XP Compaq box.

And that driver will not build.

X works, do have video only up to 800x600 resolution. But I want 1024x768

lspci reports: via and S3 unichrome

xorgsetup created an xorg.conf with openchrome specified as the driver to load.

/sbin/modprobe openchrome

does nothing.

lsmod does not list openchrome.

Perhaps I'll take the easy way out and insert an mga agp video card and use the mga driver.

Honestly, using a Matrox card probably would be the easiest solution. However, if you'd like to see about getting a larger resolution going with the openchrome driver, you'll need to show us the /var/log/xorg.0.log file that is generated with your current xorg.conf file. Also, show us the output of 'xrandr'.

Thank you!

Oop, appears I confused kernel modules with xorg modules (as per the module path in the log at next code tags)

It's actually rather nice X video but the prob is it tops at 800x600 (and I saw relevancy in the log file) -- BTW it looks that it *IS* loading and using openchrome!!

xrandr next. log in a followup post. Thanks again.

Code:
leslie@SR1053:~$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 800 x 600, maximum 800 x 600
default connected 800x600+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   800x600        60.0*    56.0  
   640x480        60.0  
leslie@SR1053:~$

The openchrome driver doesn't seem to query the monitor for the list of fully supported resolutions. Do you know the horizontal and vertical frequencies of the monitor?

? -- monitor is an HP L1750

it's a 17" flat screen. (there's no CRT monitor)

Quote:

No. But it would be near 60 refresh ?? due to being an lcd monitor ??

Maybe I can look it up at HP. I'll try.

Section "Monitor"
	Identifier   "Monitor0"
	VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
	ModelName    "Monitor Model"
	HorizSync    24.0 - 83.0
	VertRefresh  50.0 - 77.0
EndSection
Adding HorizSync and VertRefresh (as above) into xorg.conf did wonders (I now have higher res available).

I wonder if there is anything else I need to do?

(this was easier than inserting an AGP video adapter).
