Configuring Xwin on Graph. blaster
I just got Red Hat 5.2. This is the first time I tried Linux, so I know
nothing.(I assume DOS doesn't count) I am using Creative Labs Exxtreme
Graphics Blaster (3DLabs chipset) There is no mention of Exxtreme
Blaster in Xconfigurator and I found out that Xfree shipped with 5.2
does not support it. I also found out there is an upgrade for XFree.
My question is, how to configure the Xwin to get it to run on generic
settings? Or is there a way to download the upgrade without getting to
the graphic interface? All of my attempts so far get me a blank screen
and my monitor goes into PowerSave. (It's a CTX 1562CLR, also not
supported) I am also running Win95.
