The purpose of XF86Setup and xf86config (different progs to accomplish the same purpose) is to create the XF86Config file. This file contains settings for your X windows. In addition to this file, there's another file called /etc/X11/Xserver. This file specifies who can run X and which X server (video resolution, sort of) to use. The first line of this file specifies the X server. It sounds like that line is pointing to XF86_NONE. Use an editor (such as vi or emacs) to edit the file and change the first line to use XF86_VGA or XF86_VGA16 or XF86SVGA. If the first line does not reference XF86_NONE, then this is not the problem and you'll have to let us know. =========================================================== Kent West | Technology Support/ | Abilene Christian University | Voice: 915-674-2557 FAX: 915.674.6724 | ACU Station, Box 29005 | E-MAIL: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Abilene, TX 79699-9005 | Ham: KC5ENO, General | ===========================================================
