xfree 3.3.6 error: "no screens found"
I have an old video card (Diamond Speedstar 24x) which isn't supported by xfree 4, so i compiled xfree 3.3.6 from source. I ran the included xf86config program to create my XF86Config file, but whenever I run "startx," I get an error message which says "Fatal server error: No screens found"
Here is an extract from the "Screens" section of my config file.
