yes
if Xfree won't start I would look in the Xfree log not dmesg.
look in /var/log/ I forget the exact filename.

This is the information contained in my XFree86.0.log file after running the how-to.
Anyone have any clues what went wrong?
I'm getting close, one or two more solid tips and I'll have this thing in my living room. Thanks.

these two lines highlight the problem. You didn't get everything updated and installed. If you never fixed the make error that is the root cause.

I'm getting this right away when trying to download and install.
??
Code: root@mythtv:/home/ajlapp# apt-get install libpam0g-dev Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: libpam0g-dev: Depends: libpam0g (= 0.79-3.1) but 0.79-3.2 is to be installed E: Broken packages
or I get this..... Code: root@mythtv:/home/ajlapp# dpkg -i libpam0g-dev_0.79-3.1_i386.deb Selecting previously deselected package libpam0g-dev.

Unpacking libpam0g-dev (from libpam0g-dev_0.79-3.1_i386.deb) ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libpam0g-dev: libpam0g-dev depends on libpam0g (= 0.79-3.1); however: Version of libpam0g on system is 0.79-3.2. dpkg: error processing libpam0g-dev (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: libpam0g-dev

this creates the same error....cannot find directory.
i'm taking a day or two off from the box.
when i come back i'll hopefully have renewed enthusiasm.
the libpam file currently installed in R5C7 is newer than the file listed in the how-to, is this a problem. i see others have mentioned it but i'm not sure if the problem has been addressed.
thanks.

Guys,
I'm doing a recompile to test the epia s-video out fix w/the unichrome driver.
I've been getting the following:
Code: In file included from via_driver.c:49: via.h:28:25: xorgVersion.h: No such file or directory via.h:31:7: warning: "XORG_VERSION_MAJOR" is not defined via_driver.c: In function `VIAPreInit': via_driver.c:1087: error: `AGP_SIZE' undeclared (first use in this function) via_driver.c:1087: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once via_driver.c:1087: error: for each function it appears in.) make: *** [via_driver.o] Error 1
... no matter what on the make step for the unichrome driver. Looks like it assumes an Xorg install all of a sudden. Can anyone confirm this behavior? It's occuring with revision 201 of the unichrome driver.
I've tried it from the beginning twice with fresh sources w/same result.
Thanks,
Ken

looks like my experiments are a bust.........
i've tried the how-to a total of 6 times now and the result is no x server.
either something is missing or i don't have the competence to follow the instructions. the latter is most likely.
a few last ditch questions...
how do you deal with the libpam file in step one? R5C7 has a newer file already and it seems to cause issues.
how do i check that things are working correctly? my xorg log shows a few things but i don't know what to do with the information?
do i can this thing? or does someone out there have the fix/hints?

did you see cesmans comment about waiting for the next version. Makes one think he's working on this.

Thanks, Ken Both these errors is easily fixed successfully by doing the following: Create xorgVersion.h and add Code: #define XORG_VERSION_MAJOR 6
Open via_driver.h and search for AGP_SIZE ... now move the three AGP_ defines outside the #ifdef .... AGP_SIZE seems only to be used for a cosmetic printout, so, no harm done.... I tried... works beautifully..
I ahev revision 202 of the driver!
