Has anyone got a clue on where to go from here,? I'm really stocked here.

WH16 01-19-2004 04:59 PM

I'm copying this info from elsewheres:

"XFree86 4.x utility called xf86cfg.
However, i would recommend that you use
# XFree86 -configure
this will create a file called /root/XF86Config.new
After that try starting X with the following command
# XFree86 -xf86config XF86Config.new
If everything looks fine copy /root/XF86Config.new to
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (which is a correct name for X 4.x config file)"

Try running a new config to see if that alieviates the problem. If it does, just switch to the new config file.
