Hi Jason!
Please give the list details on your graphics card: maker, product,
chipset, RAM (last two optional, but knowing them makes manual
configuration of your X-server much easier). A lot of these informations
can be found out if you�re currently running MS Windows on your computer
by looking in "My Computer">Hardware (or something like that, I don�t
really remember. It�s been so long.... ;-)).
Then again, if you�re installing RedHat 5.1 or 5.2, all this might not be
neccessary. These versions are said to have an autodetect feature for the
graphics card that is working well, though I can�t say I�ve tried it
myself.
HTH!
