Diamond Viper II in X
Diamond Viper II in X
Is there any way to get X to work with this POS card?

ps I'm running freeBSD but it shouldn't matter since it's an X problem to the best of my knowledge not an OS problem.

What version of X are you running? I believe the Diamond Viper II is not supported in the 4.X versions; you'll have to use 3.3.6 (?) if memory serves.

Hope this helps.

I couldn't agree more -- if I didn't know better, I'd say it was Microsoft ... (OK, OK, uncalled-for, but I couldn't resist ...). I could also be wrong about the support, so a check of xfree86.org is probably in order ...
