You'll have to rename it by dropping the.new extension and copying it to your /etc/X11 directory, AFTER testing it first of course... If you still have problems you might want to repost but provide some more useful information like what version of FBSD you're running and/or perhaps the version of XFree86. Also you can check your /var/log directory for X-related errors. Posting this, if available, is probably very helpful Hope that helps, EB On Fri, 30 Apr 2004 15:59:29 +0200 (WesteuropXische Normalzeit) "Christopher Bahn" wrote: > Dear Geeks, > > > > I wanted to config my x-server, but I have not any specification for > my video-Card and monitor (because my computer is very old and > second-hand).
