IN mandrake/redhat as follows:
login: users name
passwrd: xxx
#su
#pswd: enter root password
#enter setup
# enter xconfig
follow the auto prompts and you should be fine until it asks you to
accept the setting, say no or manual or whatever and use the tab key to
set the default bpps you want...follow the menu and your laughing..
Ill be up for a while if you get stuck
