Re: Back creation failed


Thanks to all.
Now the Back creation failed disappeared.
But new error shows up. (Detail is at the end.)
cannot load xf_dx.dll

Note xf_dx.dll is under my /usr/X11R6/bin directory.
It seems I am using an outdated driver from internet.
My video card is CL 5430, NT 4.0, SP6a.
Cirrus Logic doesn't maintain any driver. 
I can only search the internet and try different drivers.
I guess I am not using the most updated driver.
Can anybody point me to the authorative CL 5430 driver location?
