Hello I have been trying to install Linux mandrake 8.1. I'm having trouble
setting up X Windows. I install lm 7.2 and xwindows works great. I even
tried to upgrade from lm72 still can't get it to work with lm8.1. I'm using
XFree 4.1.0.
Thanks For your help.
Bill Nash.

usually wrong xserver or video card parameters. Run XFdrake and select
the proper settings. If no luck, post details of what video card,
monitor etc and someone may be able to be more specific.
