When I run X (startx) I get a black screen for a few seconds, then it goes back to console, and only 1 Error message at xfree log:

(EE) SIS(0): Detected Chrontel 70xx, but encountered error reading I2C port.


I removed DRI from XF86Config, but same prob.

I have loaded the following modules:

i2c-core, i2c-proc, and sisfb.

Anyway to disable Chrontel detection? (TV Output chipset as far as I have seen) Or to solve the I2C problem?

Thnx.

BTW Sorry for my lame english.

I almost* got DRI working with that card.. but 2d works fine for me, I never used the i2c modules though.

I made it. The issue was to recompile xfree with -Os AND lower resolution/depth. Xfree now "flyes".
