Is that kernel module loaded?

As per the FAQ everything is hard compiled in. I'm trying it with modules as I type this.
Update: Still a no-go with modules. Same error and everything. I've tried re-emerging X and all sorts of stuff. This is strange. |

Gah, I must be going blind. That's not a kernel module, but an xorg driver. Nevermind me then.

Two things to try. You could try using "UseFBDev" "false", but I don't see any real errors in your log. Next, you could try adding something (like xterm) to your xinitrc, I'd like to see if that starts up.

Alright, I changed "UseFBDev" to "false" and that didn't do anything. What I ended up doing was setting xdm to start automatically at boot, and lo and behold, it started. For some reason a startx won't run but the Login Manager will. This works for the time being, but I still need to know why I can't startx. I'll try the xterm thing in a minute.
Ok, got it working. For some reason a regular startx will do nothing, but starting a window manager with X will. Oh well. My only other issue is that X is SLOW. It takes it a LONG time to do anything. |

Alright, xfce4 barely loads, and when it does, no programs will run without freezing. The entire X server is just plain SLOW. Does anyone have a working xorg.conf that I can see for an iMac G3? This computer is a 700 mhz machine with a 16 mb video card and 256 mb of RAM. X should not be this slow on it.
Update: Well, right after I posted it something worked on it. I have no idea why it started working, but it did. Here's my xorg.conf for anyone in the future who needs it:

# ModulePath can be used to set a search path for the X server modules.
# The default path is shown here.
ModulePath "/usr/lib/modules"
# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (which are concatenated together),
# as well as specifying multiple comma-separated entries in one FontPath

It doesn't work with that uncommented. Plus, this computer will be for internet/word processing only. It doesn't really need OpenGL. |
