Laptops :: Lte Elite 4/75 with DSL
hi, I have an old Laptop, a Compaq Lte Elite 4/75CX with 75mhz, 24MB ram and an 800MB Harddisk. I installed it with the the LILO bootloader, works fine, but I don't have any graphics drivers for the old chipset from Western Digital, WD/Paradise 90C24. I've done some reseach and discovered, that the version of Xfree (4.2) doesn't have support for that chip, but the 3.2 version does. My question is, can I somehow install drivers for this card? Other than that DSL runs very well on that old laptop.
Have you tried framebuffer?
Many times old laptops will work by booting
boot: fb800x600
thanks for the quick reply! I'll try that and tell you if it works
hmm, didn't seem to work, but I have found this:
