For your help... here is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "vesa"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "VESA driver (generic)"
EndSection

Oops. I missed the part where you said it locks up the system.
Apparently system-config-display is having problems, so it's
resorting to the vesa driver. However it is also having problems
with that.
Try changing it to:
Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "vga"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "VGA driver (generic)"
EndSection
Once you have an xorg.conf file that works, you should be able
to run system-config-display from either the command line or
the gui. Just be sure to keep a copy of the first version of
xorg.conf that you get to work. Then you should be able to
try the nv driver and/or the vesa driver. Basically my first
choice would be nv, second is vesa, and third is vga. Also
try using a low resolution like 800x600 or even 640x480. That's
just to get it working. After that you can experiment to find
out what driver and resolution works best.
