hey just one thing, i decided to try my video card drivers from www.sis.com again, when i installed them it said the packages where called "X_SISVGA" or something along them lines, last time all i did was install the rpm, and it screwed up linux... do i have to edit the XF86Config file? if so what do i have to edit, theres a sample of a XF86Config file when i downloaded the drivers but the only difference in that was that the identifier was "SIS VGA" and on mine it was Device0, so do i just change that to "SIS VGA" save it , install the rpm then im done ?

Thanks
Nightmare
