If you could send me your file that would be great. Also what monitor did
you choose?
Thanks,

Subject: Re: [expert] starting XWINDOWS???
Interesting. I have a Dell 7500, with Rage Mobility Pro, running 7.1.
I did have a little more trouble getting X configured, but I don't
remember the details.
I do have it working now, but I have a 1280x1024 LCD, and the 5000
doesn't. (I don't believe that there's any other laptop, by any
manufacturer, that does, actually--certainly there wasn't when I first
bought it in November.) As I recall, my XF86Config file from 7.0
*didn't* work as-is, though. But I might be mis-remembering; Mrs. Price
from "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" ['Your memory, Mrs. Price!'] models my
memory pretty well.
FWIW, I can mail you my config file if you want.
