Andrew, my XF86Config-4 is appended to this message.
As far as I understand it X will use version 4 over other versions as long
as there is a XF86Config-4 file (and of course only if 4 is installed).
Another question is; are you using the stock mandrake 8.2 kernel (i.e.
you've not upgraded it)?
Also what reasons are you getting for X not starting? Are you getting
something like "kernel module not loading" (I can't remember the exact
wording). Check out the contents of /var/log/XFree86.O.log and post back
for further help.
