Hello, I have completed my upgrade to 3.6 on my MacIIci (well, a fresh isntall is more appropriate) and X11 is not working, or better the X server has problems. If export the display to another computer the X programs work fine. the video says: Screen 0 at 0x7851000, 640x480, rowB 1024, fbbase0x66d5000 and the screen is white essentially, slowly horizontal lines appear, patterned. I disover that moving the mouse the lines change, so probably X is running, it is the server that writes wrongly to the framebuffer. I am using a NuBUS video card and not the internal framebuffer. It is indeed set at 640x480 1bit in macos for speed reasons with the console :) this is what I see in dmesg: macvid0 at nubus0: Macintosh Display Card macvid0: Unknown video card 0x19--Not installing interrupt routine. macvid0: 640 x 480, monochrome grf0 at macvid0 ite at grf0 not configured the card itself is an Apple card. I have some other nubus cards spare, some SuperMac spectrums I believe. SOmeone else has X working? then I ask if color is supported? any chance at that ? Better resolution? I have to change the resolution/colors in macos before boot ? BTW, I have a quadra, but I bet a 950 will never be decently supported... mY q610 has gone into the paradise of old 68k computers (well, or purgatory, I don't know). I loved that box. -R PS: if someone has a faster machne, especially with lots of ram (> 128M) if would be nice to have a JIKES package, but only if ports has a 1.21 version or newer (the previous ones are terribly bugged) so I can continue the java testing work I have interrupted some time ago for the lack of it and for a too old OS version.
