Now the X server comes up, but with minimal resolution, and only in a tiny box in the center of the screen. I suppose it is better than just having static, but I feel certain it can get better. I redirected the output of my startx to a file, and apparently it disabled all of the modes I had selected, saying that they needed higher sync rates, so I got stuck with some miserable resolution. Also, I have been having to put in the graphics card memory manually, since every time I try to select what looks like the right card from the database, X crashes before it starts. Maybe a problem there? Anyhow, any additional help would be great. I can provide any info out of the configuration or output files on request, but since the machine in question is not yet either on the network or in possession of a disk drive I can't just attach the files :(. Thanks much Ian p.s. - sorry to start a new thread, something happened to my email (email gnomes) for the thread, and I had to reconstruct this _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
