I just installed RedHat 6.0 on a DELL Inspiron 7000 with a 15"
screen.  I use the Mach64 X server found in RedHat 6.0.

I got some info from
<URL:http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~steveh/inspiron/>, but I had to come
up with a different mode for 1024x768.  I'm using the vesafb as
described on this page (support for vesafb is compiled into the
kernel that comes with RedHat 6.0).  I did downgrade the BIOS to A06,
but I'm not sure that it is necessary.

I have attached my XF86Config file.

Cheers,
Peter
