In looking further into KDrive and Tiny-x servers, there
seems to be an Xchips server, which should work
similar to the Xvesa and Xfbdev servers, that is
a specific server for the Chips and Technologies
video cards.. I don't know if this needs to simply be
added to DSL , or if building the Kdrive server from
sources with a string or define enabled is the trick.
Perhaps someone with some experience building Kdrive
from sources could point us in the right direction?
Or, is this server availiable from the Kdrive in DSL?

If you want to try a quick fix, download the already-compiled Xchips server here:

http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/XFree86/kdrive/8.0/

and replace your simlink for X with a link to the path where you saved the Xchips file.

Another way to do it is to edit your xsetup file and change "X" to "/home/damnsmall/Xchips", for example.

Good Luck.

Make sure that your saved Xchips file is set to allow executable permissions.
Type this in from an X Terminal:

Code Sample

sudo su
cd /your_save_directory_name_goes_here
chmod 755 Xchips
exit

I edited .xserverrc and replaced references to X with Xchips. I couldn't edit Xsetup because my install is frugal and it won't let me change it. I think editing .xserverrc should work but it fails with an error about suid when I do a start x. I did a 775 chmod and a chgrp to root as well as a chown to root all on Xchips. What can I do?
