Hi,
Just tried to install RH Linux 7.0 for the 1st time.
Unsurprisingly, had a problem post-install with
configuring X-Windows. I think this is due to my
graphics card (a nVidia GEForce2 Ultra 64Mb). My
machine spec is 1200MHz Athlon, 60Gb HD, Soundblaster
Platinum Live! sound card, 256Mb RAM.
Resulting problem is that I cant get into X-Windows.
I've attached my XFree86.9.log file and the
XF86Config-4 file for scrutiny. Sorry it's so long.
I'm totally new to this game, and would appreciate any
help at all. Oh, and please keep replies as
non-technical as possible!
Many thanks!!
