** Please Forgive me if this is a duplicate, my postnews is acting up **
I am currently running Interactive's X11R3 Ver 1.0 development package.
I have obtained Thomas Roell's X-server code patches and X11R4 source. I have
it built, (correctly I think, with gcc). I have a Paradise 1024 VGA
card with 512K RAM. I know Thomas states that the Paradise isn't working
correctly. And yes I know the Paradise only supports 16 colors,
at 800x600 and 1024x768. What I want to know is:
1. How can I get a working X11R4 up, using the MIT source? Hey, I will settle
for 800x600 or even lower rez (gasp!!!).
2. What's wrong with the Paradise driver? I'd be willing to work on it.
3. What's Thomas Roell's address? The one in his copyright isn't in the
maps.
My setup is:
33Mhz Micronics 64 Cache 386
12MB Ram
Paradise 1024 w/512K RAM
Panasync C1381 VGA Monitor
380MB SCSI Disk Space
Archive 2150S SCSI Tape
ACB 1542A SCSI Controller
AST 4 Port w/16550's and FAS
Thanks.
