When I my newly-installed RedHat system launches, X fails with this message: [...] (II) Primary Device is: PCI 00:08:0 (WW) TRIDENT: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:0) found (EE) No devices detected. Fatal server error: no screens found In the exact same box, booting from a different disk with an earlier version of XFree86 ("# XFree86 4.0 configuration generated by Xconfigurator") allows X to come up just fine. Also, the graphic install worked fine. I attach the log and the config. Also, some of the config from the installation that works properly. I know it's a lot of lines, but I'm hoping someone understands what to look for and can ignore the other 90%.
