hi,
I'm sorry to trouble you,but I have a question with X server when start l4linux on dope.
I have search a mail which you have sent:
>
Yes, I know that this setup is not easy. For overlay_wm driver to work it is necessary to apply 
patches to X Server sources, as I read. But I thought it must work with linux server with ordinary
l4con/dope frambuffer driver. So, it won't, ok. -- When I checked on real machine (not with ramdisk),
l4linux started and XServer starts OK.
>
I can start l4linux on dope and con,and also on serial console.The below is what I use in l4linux.cfg:

task "vmlinuz" "earlyprintk=yes mem=64M video=l4fb root=/dev/hda9 "
all_sects_writable
allow_vga
allow_cli
could you please tell me what I missing?
thank you.

sorry for not putting the error message:
(EE) VESA(0): No V_BIOS found.
(EE)Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configureation.
Fatal server error:
no screen found


In my debian system,I have a gome desktop environment, and the vesa driver for the card.

thank you:)

You need to use the 'fbdev' driver in your X config. VESA is for the
real screen, fbdev is for the frame-buffer.
