X on a Bull Estrella

[Xavier Saint-Jalmes]

Hello,

I'm new to this list, then, if I make a mistake, tell me :)

I'm trying to setup X on a Bull Estrella.
The boot message tell :
Setting PCI interrupts for a "Blackhawk (Powerstack)"
The motherboard come from Motorola.
The video chip is a CLDG 5434.

I've seen a thread on the archives that tell to build the
framebuffer : clgen. I don't find how to compile it.
The video drivers are present in the kernel tree, but there
is no options to select him in "make config"
My kernel is a 2.2.17 patch with kernel-patch-2.2.17-powerpc.

I tried to setup xserver-ggi but, when I get the package :
libggi-target-svgalib I get a broken dependencies with libggi2.

I get the source of libggi to build the binaries packages but it
needs libncurses4-dev who's not present in the distribution.

I'm lost, help me please ;)

I've a strange message in my logs :
Boguns interrupt from PC = c0009a00
what's that ?

Thanks for your help.

clgenfb is out of support PowerPC now?

Xbh(X for BlackHawk) is the Xserver for you.
You can get it from some linuxppc.org mirrors, and install the RPM
with "alien".
And it is better for Xbh to upgrade VRAM on board socket to use.
