The GXT2000P has 32MB of RAM as far as I know. I think part of the problem might be that X is only seeing 4MB, but for some reason, even when I specify the amount of VideoRAM, it still only shows 4MB. <div> On 10/13/06, Rene Rebe <<a href="mailto:rene@exactcode.de">rene@exactcode.de</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> On Friday 13 October 2006 15:01, Tom Moyer wrote: > I have tried to disable the ShadowFB by setting Option ShadowFB "false", > and now I get a signal 11 when I startx.

Some years ago I fixed the matrox driver to correctly detect the low ammount of RAM (1 or 2 MB IIRC) to work correctly on my RS6000 B50. Maybe try the mga driver on your box if you silicon is a MGA chip as well.
