I don't think that the problems I have now are driver-related (I could be
wrong, but I got the feeling I'm doing something wrong as usual). These are
the errors I get together with the relevant part of the XF86Config-file.
btw, Sparky, what do you mean with "xfree 3.3.5 by default, so try d/ling
3.3.6"?
tnx
Peter
