Hi,
I've installed 6.1 on an Ultra 45 with an xvr-300 graphics card. The
install went fine but on reboot I can read the boot messages up until a
certain point then the screen flashes and the text is unreadable. The
displayed text starts at the in the middle of the screen and wraps from the
left. I can just make out the login prompt but the console is unusable.
I can ssh in ok. I've checked the /etc/ttys and the first two entries are
terminal type sun.
I started X with startx and X starts but the xterm text is a mess and I
can't read it. Also the background Xs look squished.
I read /usr/X11R6/README and set up an xorg.conf as per the instructions
but it made no difference. I checked the firmware and the radeon
firmware is in the directory.
The monitor is an IBM/Lenovo L170p , it's preferred mode is
1284x1024@60hz.. xrandr -q confirms that.
I've booted Solaris 10 on the machine and Xsun works fine.
The card has a one dual link DVI port (DVI-59?) then a splitter cable for
two monitors. The monitor is connected to the cable marked "1"
I'm not sure what to do next, so any help appreciated.
Glenn.
