If you can answer even one of these questions you will be one of my new best friends. I have recompiled the svga code and made the demo programes. I can only get the following demoprograms working. bankspeed scrolltest testgl vgatest vgatweak Now if I can get those to work why can't I get seejpeg or zgv to display any pics at all? Why is it that no matter what setings I put for the HorizSync or VertRefresh fields I get a "Monitor setting from environment denied"? Why even though I have mouse set to none I get: svgalib: Failed to initialize mouse. I have manualy reset the SVGALIB_CONFIG_FILE to make sure it is being read but still get no results. I even tried brute forceing the timeings useing the util gtfcalc in this script. export X=29 until [[ $X > 75 ]] ; do ./gtfcalc 320 200 $X Hz 2>> /vgalib export X=$((++X)) echo trying $X Hz seejpeg -s 1 /name/of/some/jpg done Still no results. It seems odd to me that in the settings for the timeings you get your choice of say 800 x 600 and Hz but you dont get to choose the color depth. Is it just me or is this strange? I have determand with vgatest that the best modes i am capable of are 640x480x16 or 360x480x256. Although according to my bios's self test I sould beable to get 800x600x16. How can vgatest find a valid setting but trying to get one that works outside of the test invironment is a no go. -- --(tty1@faux.local|04:45|/home/faux)-- cat .sig GUI's are for slackers.
