Hey Dan,
At the time there wasn't much in that dir.
I have since reinstalled X and got it to run, but the screen only
goes black and returns to the console with an error.
I believe it is because I had no idea what to tell X about my screen
and so its defaulting to pci, which of course my 1400 does not have.
Any ideas on what I setting I should use? During installation i chose
the fbdev (or similar) screen driver, what that right?
Thanks,
Grant.
