X and Fluxbox :: problems with screen rez
Curiouser & curiouser......
Rattle a cage and look what appears
Didn't clock that you'd also switched to the kdrive (too much of a hurry as usual) since you weren't working to such a tight 50mb limit.
Feather runs without any cheat codes on my radeon9700 & boots into X, but the latest DSL needs knoppix -txt to see the boot menu and fails completely to run the xserver. Assume it is the 3.3 version that makes the difference, but don't really have a clue as to why and by the time I work it out you guys will have released new versions
Anyway they are both excellent little distros - hats off all round.
Hmm interesting ...
DSL fail to boot my GF4 too, perhaps il will give it a try.
What refresh rate can you get ? are you till stuck on eyes killing 60 HZ ?
Ok, i'am under FL.
Good points :
I don't have to boot in tet mode anymore.
It includes MPlayer
))
Bad :
Still can't have more than 60 Hz even though there is a dialog in xsetup for that. Setting refresh rate with xvesa depends of the hardware i suppose.
I got the mouse pointer stuck (!), had to go to console and play with insmod.
I just have to add GCC and it will be near perfect or me 
Yeah Shame about the res, but glad your working OK.
The truth is we expect too much from these mini distros & should be gratefull for whats available 
Personally I'm not wedded to the idea of the mini disc and the 50mb limit, as I never use them, but like many I have old machines with small hard drives that benefit by a pared down distro.
p.s. Love the DVD burner 4.5 in one hit 
Yeah, but 50 / 64 Mb is very small, but there is no distro that weight 80 / 100 which would be good for an average USB key (128 / 256 M).
