Description Ludwig Nussel 2005-11-18 12:15:36 UTC 
The X config after install of Alpha3 causes a black screen on my laptop (intel 855 chip). According to the log the xserver crashed which means it killed the linux frame buffer I guess. It works if I remove the clone stuff from the Device section. I didn't manage to recreate a broken config like the one created during install by running sax2 -r later.

I think you should be able to rebuild the problem by calling:

  sax2 -b MergedFB
Comment 3 Marcus Schaefer 2005-11-18 16:00:29 UTC 
Ludwig can you check if the command:

   855resolution 3c <xres> <yres>

   855resolution -l

works on your system ?

Thanks

Found the bug:

   Option       "MonitorLayout" "CRT,DFP"

is wrong, correct is:

   Option       "MonitorLayout" "CRT,LFP"

the current version which I will check in today fixed that
problem

Hm. Not necessarily, and still the Xserver shouldn't crash in this case.
