Thanks for the advice! I ran Xconfigurator. The first choice is the Card.
I chose wd 90c24a2, which is the factory spec card for my laptop.
I was exited from the program and the message
< Server doesn't exist, can't continue.
tried to use ../../usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA>
displayed. I attempted to use wd 90c24 as well, and received the same
message.
Then I used the generic card option. I tried it three times, each with a
different monitor. Each monitor option should have worked with my monitor
type, but I still ended up with the original error message when I ran
startx:
<Fatal server error:
No valid modes found.>
Any thoughts? You score big time points if you can get me past this.
Thanks!Alex Henry

Run Xconfigurator. If your screen is not listed, select "Highscreen
LE1024", which is an old 14" screen; your screen can probably do much
better, but you can't hurt a screen with too conservative settings.
