Not sure if this was sent so am re-sending.

1. Yes, I have a Red Hat 7.2 installation

 2. X -version gives:

 XFree86 Version 4.1.0 (Red Hat Linux Release:4.0.1-3 / X window 
systems (protocol version11, revision0, vendor release 6510)
Release date 2 June 2001
Build operating system: Linux 2.4.7 0-13 1smp i686 [ELF]
Build host: stripples.devel.redhat.com
Module loader present

I don't know what the hack would be. Also, I can only communicate using 
windows XP so I have to enter everything in windows. This is why I 
haven't attached any of the config files. 

Regards.   ...  Larry
