Trying to get XFree86 to work on my SunBlade100 with "Expert 3D Lite" graphic card (pci).

Anyone knows what driver to use? :?:

Im using kernel 2.4.24-sparc-r1

Unfortunately there is no support for the Expert 3D Lite at this time that I'm aware of. I'm surprised your machine as usable as we've had users report booting problems with the Expert 3D Lite cards.

Ok, sorry to hear that, but I already started to guess it was so...

I had lots of trouble in the beginning with booting, but when I booted from the LiveCD with option "video=atyfb:off", it worked...

Perhaps I shall remove the Expert 3D Lite card and try to use the onboard "ATI Rage 128" card and see if I can get X working that way... :?:

Yeah, the onboard card will work just fine.
