I'm using XFree 4.03, Nvdriver + GLX 0.9.769-1, kernel 2.4.4's AGP support, on a celeron 700 + 196 Mg RAM and have the same issues with X startup, I think it's a driver issue not a configuration problem It's never caused any problems so I'm happy anyway Cheers Joel -- Anagrams reveal the mysteries.
