Oops, just a minute, lets get this correct, you used grep "MediaGX Cards"
That will return __nothing__ even if "MediaGX" is there, so what i mean is,
do not grep for a sentance or saying, grep for _words_.
Use;
grep MediaGX /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/Cards
That is how the word in question is spelled.
Grep is very unrewarding in the case you used.
Even if it was there it would not show it.

You could install a new version of xfree86 without to much problem, i
suggest you go to;
www.xfree86.org and take a look at all the links there, you can get a new
version and read some help files as well.
