monitor problems

[hjalmars]

hi!

I just installed SuSE 8.1 Pro on another computer, everything went fine, unitl x server should start...

it says:

Fatal server error:
AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0

XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

and in the log-file it says:

Monitor[0]: Using hsync range of 30.00-33.00 kHz
Monitor[0]: Using vrefresh range of 43.00-72.00 Hz

Not using default mode "640x350" (hsync out of range)
Not using default mode "320x175" (bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan)


Not using default mode "640x400" (hsync out of range)
Not using default mode "320x200" (bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan)

Then it tries several different resolusions, with the same problems...
up to 1920x1440 where it says: (insufficient memory for mode)

well, it's a very old grafics card (PCI) so I only hoped for 800x600...

the monitor I am using is Fujitsu iCL ErgoPro 151p (14")

The strange thing is that it works during install...?

Any help appreciated!

Here are your correct Horiz and Vert synch rates.

Vendor; Model; EDID; Horizontal_Refresh; Vertical_Refresh; DPMS
Fujitsu ICL; Fujitsu ICL ErgoPro 151p; icl0700; 30.0-64.0; 48.0-100.0;1

Post your /etc/X11/XF86Config file.

I have reinstalled SuSE and I don't think i will have any boot-problems now...

although...in the install, i noticed that it did not detect the monitor, so i looked it up in the device-list and FOUND it...
I was happy for a short while...
when IO tested X Server I got this result:

X Server test failed:

(WW) The directory "usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/sgi" does not exist.
(WW) The directory "usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/xtest" does not exist.

I haven't had any problems installing on other machines...

I'll get back when I have finished the install and retested it

Those are only warning messages and will not affect the running of X.

Delete those font entries from /etc/X11/XF86Config (or -4) if you like.

grep EE /var/log/XFree86.0.log (to look for errors)

[hjalmars]

i don't have any errors...
i have some warnings about font-dirs that doesn't exist..

Section of /etc/X11/XF86Config:

Section "Monitor"
Option "CalcAlgorithm" "CheckDesktopGeometry"
HorizSync 30-64
Identifier "Monitor[0]"
ModelName "ICL ERGOPRO 151P"
VendorName "FUJITSU"
VertRefresh 48-100
UseModes "Modes[0]"
EndSection

--------------------------------------------------
I think i have solved the problem...
I tried a graphics-card i have had som problems with before, it works fine and i will use this monitor i am using now.....

i will only need it to install everything, i am going to use the computer as a ftp-server...

thanks for the help anyway!
