XWindows config is a science all its own, due to the great variety of hardware out there. But to start, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-sfree86 Then if that doesn't do it, search at xfree86.org, and post on a list there, or on debian-user. This list is actually for development of the installer, and X configuration is beyond its scope. -- Debian GNU/Linux Operating System By the People, For the People Chris Tillman (a people instance) toff one at cox dot net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
