Do you know what happens when you try to launch X? Does any error message come up? Also, do you know which version and video server (VGA_16, etc.) you are running? And finally, are you able to use the X configuration ``wizard'' to configure the video card and run the X test? // Linh Pham // // Proud supporter of FreeBSD and OpenBSD // FreeBSD - http://www.freebsd.org // OpenBSD - http://www.openbsd.org /* "Oregon, n.: Eighty billion gallons of water with no place to go on Saturday night." */ On Sun, 23 Jul 2000, Frank Warren wrote: > A while back I got a new machine, mostly for Windows stuff (dual processor), > and did something stupid; I bought a Creative Labs Graphics Blaster RIVA TNT > video card.
