Yes, there is, in the XF86_MONO server. Unfortunately, creating /etc/xf86config could be quite tricky; XFree86 3.2's new XF86Setup program uses the vga16 server, so you can't use that. You really need to find somebody else's settings and steal and adjust them. I'm in the same boat. I have a 486/33/12 which I would like to run X on for a joke :-) but it has mono, and I don't have any figures for the config file. hamish -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
