in that case - I would make sure the system is using XFree-4.3.0 - as the MAtrox drivers in there are pretty good. Just make ssure XFree86-4.3 is installed, not the 3.3.6 ! REmove that one. Once the othre one is in - run XFDrake - and you should be done.

Dreadful consequence - I had to boot it into windows so that he could play solitair over lunch <g> However, at that point I realised that the problem actually is with the card - or at least with its driver. I don't know where it got it from, but it has set up the driver for an early SiS card, which is what used to be in their. It's actually got a Matrox Mystique card in now.
There must be a way to get it to look again at this. Does harddrake run from the cli, and will it allow me to set the graphics card? I should be able to get to the machine again in around 1/2 hour <g>
