I am a Redmond Linux Amethyst (DL edition) newbie. Compared to win98se on
the same box, text looks "blotchy".  Like the diagonal on a letter N will be
much thicker(stairstepped) than the verticals.  RL uses Kx configure from
the KDE ver 2.2.2 pkg, which detected "ATI 3D Rage Pro" and installed the
proper driver from XFree86 ver 4.1.0, I guess.  The GUI of Kx configure
doesn't give me alot of info or choices.  I set resolution at 800x600/85hz,
which is identical to win98se.  But the win98 display of identical text
looks perfect, RL looks "blotchy".  My monitor used in both cases is an IBM
P72.  BTW, what is "virtual desktop" on the resolution screen of Kx
configure? I have the XFree86.0.log, but didn't see any obvious errors and
won't attach the 24k file now.  Is there something on this I should check?
The AGP video card has 8mb. I believe this card is one of ATI's Mach 64
series.
