My hardware is as follows:

AMD Athlon 800 Mhz on a VIA chipset motherboard.
256 MB of SDRAM
nVidia Geforce 256


And my configuration file is this:

Here is the Configuration File:

Section "Files"

# The location of the RGB database.  Note, this is the

# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are
concatenated together)

To help you, you'll have to post more Information: What does your
XF86Config look like, what hardware are you using...

Wie f�ngt man einen L�wen in der W�ste?
Die dialektische Methode

Man z�unt die W�ste ein, bew�ssert sie, s�t Gras und setzt Kaninchen
aus. Die Kaninchen vermehren sich schnell. Nach Hegel kommt daher bald 
der Zeitpunkt, bei dem Quantit�t in Qualit�t umschl�gt, und dann hat
man einen L�wen.
