Title: Newbie struggling with 6990 rig Post by: upiru on June 24, 2011, 01:00:10 PM Hi there I'm Upiru, I'm a newbie so I feel comfy here :P
but still as a newbie I think I need some help ... :-\ so basicly I try to set up the all mighty 3x6990 with ubuntu but can't go beyond the ATI drivers install, witch I guess whent quiet fine Then, as I don't have any HD screen (got a DVI to VGA plug instead), I found my self with a scramble view of my desktop ... ...and I don't want to buy a screen as I want to remote desktop the monster ... So I thought I could just rewrite my xorg.cong to send a more suitable signal to my old screen here what I wrote : Code: Section "Screen" and it just crashs X .... hehehe ...I guess it would have been too easy ... ::) soooo any one could help me write a better xorg.conf please ? or show me what ever other way ... any idea .. thx Title: Re: Newbie struggling with 6990 rig Post by: upiru on June 24, 2011, 01:26:51 PM hum ..I just tried this :
Code: Section "Screen" "800x600_61.00" is what my screen support ...hehehe sorry X don't crashs but I still get scramble view ... maybe the Depth ... I gonna try the with depth at 16 I don't really know what I'm doing here ... ??? Title: Re: Newbie struggling with 6990 rig Post by: upiru on June 24, 2011, 01:34:17 PM well seams that the depth at 16 crashes X ...
but then, I might be wrong, I guess the depth at 24 scrambles the view ... Title: Re: Newbie struggling with 6990 rig Post by: upiru on June 24, 2011, 01:44:36 PM off course I tried VNC , before the issue I could get through
