Hi
I'm not sure what video card you have. If it is ATI LT Rage Pro Then the server
that comes RH6.0 for Mach 64 will not work. To find out what card you have run
SuperProbe. If it's the LT then just get the mach64 server from
"website.lineone.net/~a.rix/rh6-solo9150.html", replace with the one you have
and run Xconfigurator. This time it will work fine.
Good luck,,,,,,,,,,,,
