I had to re-install Linux on my laptop after the InstallFest, so when I did I ended up coming across the same problems that existed the first time I installed Linux. At login, I get a message telling me that the system was unable to get the x-server (I think) up and running. It had some sort of problem with my monitor, and that no valid screen modes could be found. I asked someone about it who had a similar laptop, and their XF86Config file was identical almost to mine with respect to my monitor and graphics card settings.
I have a Dell Inspiron 4000, with a 128 bit ATI Rage graphics card. Also, I get a message from the utility it runs to try and fix my problem that states, �Probing returned bogus results� Does anybody know what I should do? The guy who helped me set this up came across the same problem with me and he was able to fix it, but don�t remember how he did it.
