Hello all, If you couldn’t tell - I’m brand new to the hppa port. So please forgive some of my questions and lack of understanding… I noticed that when telling sysinst that I want a “Full installation” - it installs x____.tgz, but does not install xserver.tgz. xserver.tgz is on the CD / ftp/ etc. sites. however. Is this something specific to hppa ? Something specific to my machine ?
I can fix this. :)
Correct according to openpa.netMy GPU is: [ 1.000000] sti0 at pci3 dev 2 function 0 [ 1.000000] sti0: rev 8.13;9, ID 0x35ACDA3009A02587 [ 1.000000] sti0: A1262A, 1280x1024 frame buffer, 1280x1024x32 display [ 1.000000] sti0: 10x20 font type 1, 40 bpc, charset 0-255 I believe this is known as the Visualize Fx5 Pro ?
Would I have any better luck with downgrading to the HP A4982A Visualize FXE ? Also based on the name (sti) - is this truly text only ? The man page mentions lots of resolutions and color depths for various framebuffers. This makes me think X11 is a thing ? Thanks.
macallan@ did all the work on this so maybe he can update us.
