Re: [LI] ATI MACH64 215VT configuration problem

[Girish Kamath <girishkamath@xxxxxxx>]

Hi

You have said you have selected ATI MACH64 264VT as your card is not
listed. This is not recommended. May be you can try to configure
it as a generic VGA card. 

Else, try "XF86setup", which has lot more options. If XF86Setup is not 
installed in you Linux (By default, it is not installed) , you can
get the RPM from the Redhat CD.

        Card - ATI MACH64 264VT ( since 215VT is not present in the card

        Monitor - Viewsonic E641 Model (he has got this monitor)
        Server - XF86_SVGA Server & XF86_accl server ( I tried both
these ).
