Well, I came up with an interesting solution to my X problem, by
way of a friend with more linux experience than i (and that don't
take much!). He suggested that i try another distro since i had no
huge time or data invested with Linux-Mandrake. I used his Red
Hat 6.0 disk from cheapbytes.com and got things installed with no
problem; so now i just need to play with xvidtune a little and ditch
the GNOME desktop as i like what little i've seen of KDE.
I selected the generic ps/2 mouse and RH probed things correctly
and setting up X was no problem....am i correct in assuming that i
can use the X11Config file from this installation with a Linux-
Mandrake install also???
