I've looked into this some and it looks like it is a problem with the configuration of saw(mill,fish,blade,horse,tooth,whatever). The first time I managed to get X to start was with a XF86Config-4 cribbed from knoppix. It had X at some insane resolution. On a 17" monitor I like 800X600 so that is what I set the max resolution at. Anyway. It looks like saw? was configured with the knoppix reso. I think I can fix the problem by "mv"ing the file(s) that was generated and restarting X. I just need to know what file(s). ----------------------------------------- Please leave this.
