- I have an MVGA (paradise compatable) that X recognizes as pvga1 (SLS 98p1).
-
- I got a bunch of neat codes via the modegen.taz files, but none of them
- work. I get those 'funky video modes' that were not meant for human eyes
- to see. I think I still have a headache from that...:)
-
- Anyone else have a similar video card and get X running in COLOR?? I have
- it running in 'generic' VGA, but..well..it looks about as visually stunning
- as me after working for a night trying to get it to work with no success.
-
- Thanks.
