A few graphic card problems


First of, I have no XF86Config-4 file, is that a problem?
Second, when I boot my computer, agpgart says it can only find the onboard graphics, not the Geforce Ti4200 card I have installed. How do I fix that?

X works, but the resolution is something like 800x640, and that quite bad considering I have a large screen. Everything is huge. I've tinkered with the XF86Config but it doesn't make a differance. The latest Nvidia IA32 drivers are installed.

Any suggestions?

No, not a problem ... the -4 files were a solution for
the transition phase between X 3 and X 4. X4 will
happily work with a file XF86Config.

That's a BIOS option I guess, tell it to disable the
onboard chipset.


Ad 3)
Post the screen and driver sections of the
XF86Config



Cheers,
Tink
