Yup - I sure can. You will probably come to the bash shell when you boot up. first try and locate your XF86Config file. It should be in a X11 folder either in /usr/ or in /etc/ then, type "vi /etc/X11/XF86Config" to come to the text editor. in the device section, under where the video ram is, type Option "noaccel" Before typing press "i" to insert the text. After typing, pres esc once and then type ":w" to save and ":q" to exit the editor and you're done. Just type startx and whalla !!! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sridhar Dhanapalan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Gonzalix le Druide" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 03, 2001 9:38 AM Subject: Re: [newbie] Another opinion, please.
