Humm...if it's that easy maybe I should try it just for test purposes?
My need for X sort of went away on that machine, but I'd be interested

Actually, that config works without any changes!

I merged in the monitor and screens config from my old config and I have 
my desktop back again. The only difference as far as I can tell is that my 
old config specified at ATI device and yours specifies a Radeon device.



Anyway, thanks very much!
