 |
|
Hi everbody,
I have installed Gentoo Linux 1.4 RC2 on a SUN Ultra60. I am running into problems configuring XFree86. I am using the sunffb driver in my XF86Config file. But somehow XFree86 is not able to detect the monitor. It is a SUN 21 inch monitor. I already started to play with the modelines in XF86Config, but with no success. Has anybody got a working XF86Config file which he can post here? I would really appreciate it!
best regards
Stefan |

Stefan,
What was your install method? I ask because I have the same box, using the 1.1iso and 1.4 tarball. However, I could never get the network up.
Thanks,
Joe |

Stefan,
I was able to get the network up off the cdrom, but the network wouldn't exist when I chrooted. I don't recall if I tried modprobe...I spent some time in IRC to get help at the time. Hmmm. I'll bring the box down and give it another go.

Joe,
After the chroot, did you check the network settings, with: .
For me the network was still there after the chroot. Also make sure you have your nameserver ip address in /etc/resolv.conf:
| Code: | search yourdomain.com
nameserver your.dns.ip.address |
If you have any probs post them.
