Newly acquired Knoppix 3.3 2003-09-24-BETA tells me it's failed to find an X-Server for my card (after flashing the screen of the Belinea 10 30 70 monitor and retrying with vesa and fbdev) and I just end up with a monochrome 'weave' background and a diagonal cross cursor.
Card is an old AGP Matrox Mystique G200 with 8MB and reported by Win2K as having 250MHz DAC with MGA-G200 B8 R1 chipset. It's sitting in a Gigabyte GA-5AX with K6-2/400 and 384MB.
I've also tried cheat-codes of "noagp" and "xserver=XF86_SVGA xmodule=mga vga=normal screen=1024x768 xvrefresh=75" but without success.
Any clues for this newbie would be very welcome (and how do I get to see output of any boot diagnostics, anyway?).
