hello
yesterday i did install linux, redhat linux 5.1, for the very first
time on my computer - a Inspiron 3200 D266XT. as a very, very beginner i
was soon confrontated with some problems. the x window system.
after installation ...
(1) i did install the rpm package for the XBF_NeoMagic server
using $ rpm -vh XBF-neomagic-glibc-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm
(2) then i (root) created
ln -sf ../../usr/X11R6/bin/XBF_NeoMagic /etc/X11/X
(3) cp'ed the /etc/X11/XF86Config.neomagic to /etc/X11/XF86Config
(4) and deleted the "Subsection Display" through "EndSubsection" in
XF86Config for all the displays I didnt want to use (tip Ryan
Faussett)
(5) starting $ startx still brings up X in 320x200 (something like
that)
please can anybody give me some advise how to set it up properly. i know
i don'd contribute to the mailinglist at all by asking this 'common
sense' questions, but i am a very very beginner who really needs a lot
of help.
thanks
Daniel
