please help its really fustrating me.. i'm a newbie and really wanted to give it a go through VMware before partitioning ect ect.

i have redhat successfully running on another pc (without VMware) but the pc is way to slow to really do anything..

i've read heaps of :study: books but can't find anything..
its hard to find an answer, when you don't really know what the questions is

Got it :)

i searched frantically for a config file, or something, and stumbled across
redhat-config-packages

but i did
redhat-config-xFree86
or whatever it was..

and it loaded me up into the gui, i selected my resolution and we're rocking!

but its running really slow..
any suggestions how i can get it to recognise my video card? without me having to use the gui? its near impossible to use
