Carlos, XF86_SVGA is the old (v 3.3.6) X server for a wide range of svga-capable chips, including some of the Chips and Technologies video controllers. Redhat does some odd stuff with X; check /etc/X11 directory to see whether you're configured for v 3.3.6 (XF86Config only) or v 4.1 (XF86Config-4 is present). If you must use Redhat, use Xconfigurator to keep this silliness straight and make sure things are done as Redhat expects. Also, until you're sure X is up and running, you might want to avoid the complication of running Gnome, by typing "xinit" to start X, rather than "startx" - this will start the server in the most basic way possible, with a single terminal window and no window manager or desktop metaphor. (At least) while you're doing this, make sure the run-level in /etc/inittab is 3, rather than 5 or 6, so the system doesn't attempt to start Xdm or other graphic login screens.
Hope this helps Peter Johnson. _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
