I just remembered that for the neomagic 128XD that's in mine, I had to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and set the "DefaultColourDepth" to 16 instead of 24. Yours might be a more recent model but my card got short on memory trying to run at 24 on 1024x768. just on an extra note: Stephen if you could separate your sig with -- (2 dashes) I wouldn't have to delete it every time I reply, though it definitely is more bandwidth friendly than your previous one;o)....Ta. -- Good luck, HarM Mandrake HowTo's & More:-) http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
