Someone Please help me again...
I know I've asked this before, and I had lots of help with it. But the new Mandy 9.2 has something different in it than 9.1. My problem is that I dont have Acceleration in X anymore.
Here is my XF86 config -4 file.

I know that I have the option noaccel there, cause apparently that is "needed" but like I said, I didn't have that line in 9.1 and it worked... Anyone out there know anything that might help? Someone told me that it might be a DRI thing?
Oh, I should also say what happens when I comment out the noaccel line, my screen (and apparently my laptop) just dies. I cant switch to a different TTY or anything, screen goes black also, then im left to use VI to edit in failsafe. Peeze help
