Hi all,
I just tried installing A/DeMuDi-1.2.0 on a K6 machine with a SiS chipset.
Didn't like it at all, I'm at a loss to know why except that the SiS 530
driver failed to load. It's a Packard Bell (Club 78) machine that really was
only ever intended to run Windows. The installer also has problems
configuring X to work with some of the really old 14" monitors we have lying
around. I don't fully understand this yet, either.
I am currently setting up a simple multimedia network for my local Community
Arts Centre using a whole load of random hardware that I've just had thrown
at me. I will, of course be installing A/DeMuDi on most of these machines. I
have to say, it's rather exciting being given the opportunity to create a
public GNU/Linux installation, particularly in a multimedia setting. :-)
cheers

On the X front dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 may help but you may
need to use the advanced settings to manually set refresh rates etc..
You may be able to get the monitor info on the web.
SIS530 rings a bell, I'll try to remember why.
