Hi,

I want to breathe new life into my old Targa NT9231 (HARDWARE) and wanted to install antiX 22.
This works so far also very well, even a LAN connection I could establish (with UBUNTU this does not work already times).
What I don’t like is that in the default installation (antiX-22-Base 64bit) from USB stick only a maximum resolution of 640×480 is possible.
So it is not possible to work productively.

Does anyone have an idea how I can get a higher resolution?

Would a kernel change bring something?

Does an installation with the version “antiX-22-Full 64bit “make sense?

Greetings

PS: With antiX-17.5-Base 64bit I have a choice of several resolutions that fit. However, 17.5 is EOL on the part of Debian.

At first check what driver is in use.

inxi -Gx

If there is sis -driver in use, so then vesa -driver may be a better choise.

Yes. It will make it easier to perform some changes, like using another kernel…

Possibly – older kernels may work better with very old hardware, but usually the more recent the kernel is, the more hardware compatibility it has.

I have a similar netbook – Atom with 1.6 Ghz, 1 Gig of (shared) RAM (so, no dedicated graphics card, like you have)- sometimes it’s slower than my 32bits laptop, that has antiX 22, 32bits edition.
It makes sense to use a 64bits OS because, although it uses a little bit more RAM, it is much more compatible with current software – you can run just about any app (that your system resources can handle) and also stream DRM on your browser (this means you can use Netflix, HBO, etc, if you want to).

If I were you, I would try a side by side installation first, keeping your old antiX OS, not sharing the Home, and see if you can tweak it to handle your screen resolution.
As always, first, always backup essential stuff, then install/reinstall the OS or format partitions…

Note: if you can, try antiX 23 beta, and see how it works on your system. Probably in a couple of months, it will be the more recent official antiX version.

Also, please post info on you system, as previously requested

Note: having repeated posts, in different languages can be confusing, you may get tips on one thread and not another. It would be a good policy to choose a language and stick with it, so folks trying to help you out do not have to keep track of 2 different threads!

I wrote in the topic Targa NT9231 – Auflösung max 640×480.

Hallo ext4.

Wenn Sie Hilfe im Forum anfordern, sollten Sie den Anweisungen in diesem Thema How to: correctly use antiX forum How folgen um : AntiX-Forum richtig zu verwenden, sonst wird es für die Leute schwierig, Ihnen zu helfen.

Poste das Ergebnis der Befehle “inxi -Fxz” oder “inxi -zv7” im Terminal.

Da Sie nur Ihre Computerinformationen gepostet haben, “SIS MIRAGE 3+, bis zu 256 MB gemeinsam genutzter Speicher, DVI-I-Ausgang
(VGA via Adapter)”, stelle ich mir dieses Thema vor Remastering von antiX 21 Full 32 und 64 Bit mit Kernel 4.4.0-296 kann Ihnen helfen.

Olá ext4.

Quando você solicitar ajuda no fórum, você deve se atentar as instruções deste tópico How to: correctly use antiX forum, caso contrário ficará difícil para as pessoas poderem te ajudar.

Poste o resultado do comandos “inxi -Fxz” ou “inxi -zv7” no Terminal.

Como você postou apenas as informações do seu computador, “SIS MIRAGE 3+, up to 256 MB shared memory, DVI-I out
(VGA via adapter)”, eu imagino que este tópico Remasterização do antiX 21 Full de 32 e 64 bits com o Kernel 4.4.0-296 poderá te ajudar.

Sorry for the double post. I was advised in the German forum better to open a thread in this part of the forum.

Thanks for the feedback, glad you want to help me.

You could use Puppy Linux for making better /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. Run Puppy as live and copy Puppy´s xorg.conf to antiX /etc/X11/ .

If it does not work delete file via another console (eg tty2) Ctrl F1 on login screen, login and remove file as root.

I have one good Puppy made xorg.conf as an attachment.

OK. This is not a subject I know much about, but I took a cursory look at your log. Relevant part:

Graphics:

You can check, in antiX 17.X, if it states that it has “sis” loaded (instead of “vesa”).
Like RJP mentioned, maybe you can set that in your xconf config file…

Here is the output from “inxi”:

You can continue with your topic in the German language area, because anyone who wants to help you will help you in any language with the help of automatic internet translators. In addition to the advantage that it is easier to find a topic in the German language area than in the English language area. As your native language is German, give preference to translating my original text directly into your language and you will get a much better result.

Faced with the information “Device-1: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 771/671 PCIE VGA Display” and “Display: server: X.Org v: 1.20.11 driver: X: loaded: vesa”, I searched through my long file of “.txt” text that helped me find the topics:

If these topics are not enough to help you solve the problem with the resolution, I seriously recommend you to test the ISO that I managed to remaster with Kernel 4.4.0-296.

Apologies, I am guilty for the double language posting, I simply advised that posting in English was better. It’s my experience that posts in English get more attention, even with good translation services. Sorry for any problems.

Hallo, ich habe die Hinweise durchgelesen und einiges getestet.
Bei den beiden remasterten Iso´s (remaster_antiX-21_sysvinit_x64_full_kernel_4.4.0-296_01-15-2022.iso) das gleiche: max. Auflösung 640×480

Dann habe ich “antiX-19-legacy-bet2_386-base.iso” getestet, hier hatte ich eine Auflösung von 1024×768

Hello, I have read the instructions and tested a few things.
The same for the two remastered ISOs (remaster_antiX-21_sysvinit_x64_full_kernel_4.4.0-296_01-15-2022.iso): max. resolution 640×480

Then I tested “antiX-19-legacy-bet2_386-base.iso”, here I had a resolution of 1024×768

That iso was specially created to run in systems like your’s (sis video card). You can:
1- install that tweaked antiX 19 OS
2- keep trying to tweak antiX 22 or antiX 23 (like, for example, testing that config file on those systems, etc.)

Edit: is your signature a quote of “Highlander”?

Thanks for the tips.

I have seen that in antiX 22 following files (drivers)
“xserver-xorg-video-sis671″
and
xserver-xorg-video-vesa”.
are present.

How can I activate them?
“startx xserver-xorg-video-sis671” respectively in the “xorg.conf”
