YellowDog3--XFree86 problem

[visiontracks]

I have tried to install Yellow Dog Linux 3.0 on 2 different Macintoshes with the same problem occuring. Linux boots and runs but only in text mode. Everytime I try to start X I get an error message as follows:


(EE) ATI(0): Depth 15 is not supported through this adapter.
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

Fatal server error:
No screens found

One system is a PowerMac 8500, the other is a 9600.
One monitor is a Apple display and the other is a Power Computing display.

During the installation process the monitor works fine.

I was kinda hoping another member would be able to answer this since 'no screens found' is asked and answered quite often and I get a little *cough* sick of this question. Not your fault though.

Either the 'Screen' section in your X config is missing or is not configured correctly (more likely).

Please read the section about configuring X.
