I'm not so sure, but I think the "xbase-clients" package provides the /usr/bin/X11/xorgconfig file.

As far as I know there is no xorgconfig in FC4. Why don't you open the xorg.conf file in /etc/X11/ and do the configuration from there?

Any info wud be great, Buck

I set my card to ATI x800 XT (as it's the closest to X850 XT PE), so that should work
