Dear sir/madam, I have created a bootable cd using an initrd and have installed X Window and Xfce. I want to acheieve a stage where the GUI settings will be generic and work with most graphics cards and output devices.
I have configured the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and given most if not all the variables a generic value. I made a comparism with the Live CD 6.2 file and they are virtually identical. I found however, that the Live cd 6.2 works with systems which my cd does not regarding the startx command. What else do I need to look for? I suspect that the Kernel will need recompiling. What values should I alter in the Kernel configuration which will make the graphics settings truly generic on multiple x86 platforms with differing graphics cards. >From my investigation, Raidion and ati crads work but Geforce does not.
