Different version of Xorg

[Marco Trapanese]

Hello,

my tinycore installation has Xorg version 1.7.7.
I need to install driver for VAC2000. The are available for:

Xorg 7.1.1
Xorg 1.4.0
Xorg 1.5.2
Xorg 1.6.0


Where may I download one of those packet for tc?


EDIT:

I said I installer xorg 1.7.7 because I read this version in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
But if I try tce-load -wi Xorg-7.5.tcz it says it's already installed...

Which is the actual installed version?

[curaga]

7.5 is the version of the full set (libs, server, apps). 1.7.7 is the version of the server component.

We also have the older 1.6.1 server as part of Xorg-7.4. Remove 7.5 if you want to try with 7.4.

Ok, I installed Xorg-7.4 and as expected the tvia driver didn't raise any error. Now I have my xorg log file without any (EE) item. Anyway I can't start X server. At the very end of the log I find this:

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting

What does that mean? How should I investigate to fix the problem?

[curaga]

It would mean that the older Intel driver in 7.4 is buggy on your hardware.

edit: You can still use the vesa or fbdev drivers.

[Marco Trapanese]

Sgrunt.
It's the second bug I found in two days (the other one on other hw and os, but related to xorg/intel too).

Vesa doesn't work for me. I see a corrupted image on the screen (I can't read anything).
I will try fbdev or I ask an updated driver for my VAC2000 - thus I will use Xorg 7.5

Thanks

Hi Marco Trapanese

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting

It means a program tried to access an illegal memory location.

Thank you for explanation. Now I reinstalled Xorg-7.5 and asked updated drivers to AMP ltd...
