 Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2003 10:28 pm Post subject: XF86Config for Dell Latitude CPi D300XT with NeoMagic nm2160 |
 |
|
The following XF86Config has X up and running on my Dell Latitude CPi DX300XT Laptop. Documentation for this laptop model is hard to come by on the Internet, and the best source I could find was at http://www.act.cmis.csiro.au/gjw/linux/dlcpid300xt.html, and this only for X version 3. I combined references from several sources to put this together and it appears to work well, at least as far as I can tell so far. Note that this setup requires xfs. If you're not using xfs, comment out the FontPath for the xfs server ("unix/:7100").

# This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables

EndSection
Section "ServerFlags"
# Uncomment this to cause a core dump at the spot where a signal is
# received. This may leave the console in an unusable state, but may
# provide a better stack trace in the core dump to aid in debugging
# Option "NoTrapSignals"
# Uncomment this to disable the <Crtl><Alt><Fn> VT switch sequence
# (where n is 1 through 12). This allows clients to receive these key
# events.
# Option "DontVTSwitch"
# Uncomment this to disable the <Crtl><Alt><BS> server abort sequence
# This allows clients to receive this key event.
# Option "DontZap"
# Uncomment this to disable the <Crtl><Alt><KP_+>/<KP_-> mode switching
# sequences. This allows clients to receive these key events.
# Option "DontZoom"
# Uncomment this to disable tuning with the xvidtune client. With
# it the client can still run and fetch card and monitor attributes,
# but it will not be allowed to change them. If it tries it will
# receive a protocol error.
# Option "DisableVidModeExtension"
# Uncomment this to enable the use of a non-local xvidtune client.
# Option "AllowNonLocalXvidtune"
# Uncomment this to disable dynamically modifying the input device
# (mouse and keyboard) settings.
# Option "DisableModInDev"
# Uncomment this to enable the use of a non-local client to
# change the keyboard or mouse settings (currently only xset).
# Option "AllowNonLocalModInDev"
# Set the basic blanking screen saver timeout.
Option "blank time" "10" # 10 minutes
# Set the DPMS timeouts. These are set here because they are global
# rather than screen-specific. These settings alone don't enable DPMS.
# It is enabled per-screen (or per-monitor), and even then only when
# the driver supports it.
# Option "standby time" "20"
# Option "suspend time" "30"
# Option "off time" "60"
# On some platform the server needs to estimate the sizes of PCI
# memory and pio ranges. This is done by assuming that PCI ranges
# don't overlap. Some broken BIOSes tend to set ranges of inactive
# devices wrong. Here one can adjust how aggressive the assumptions
# should be. Default is 0.

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"

# If you have a Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:

# Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
#
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"

# Setup for the NeoMagic Chipset
# **********************************************************************
# This setup is used when the notebook is not docked with display being to
# an external monitor. Both internal and external displays don't work
# together and so you need to manually edit the XF86Config file each time
# you change between the external and internal display (could be done with a
# script, but essentially you swap the "#" around, which is used to identify
# a comment line). It is reported that having both enabled can destroy the
# internal display. It certainly makes it go pretty ugly momentarily.
# According to the Linux on the Dell Latitude CPi A366XT page, you can't
# just switch between internal and external displays without updating your
# XF86Config and restarting X, or YOU CAN DAMAGE YOUR DISPLAYS!
