 BTW Richard, do you use an Nvidia card?

Yes, but I haven't installed the drivers yet since upgrading to 9.2. The 
Nvidia--nv change was the only one I made when restoring the file.

 I'm wondering since the virtual use is with the file included from my
 download edition install, and the generic nv Nvidia drivers, and I'm now
 using the nvidia proprietary drivers, should I be using the mode file
 instead?

I have no idea, but I suspect it wouldn't be a problem.

[newbie] XF86Config-4 question

2003-12-21 Thread Ronald J. Hall
Under versions of Mandrake/XFree before 9.2, I used to always set alternate 
resolutions in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 so all my games could access them.
Usually, I would just stick in 800x600, 640x480, 640x400, and 320x200 
in the file where my default bootup settings were. If I do this now, here:

Virtual 1024 768 (and put the above in)

then X won't start.

Anyone know the correct way of doing this now? Although, AFAICT, my games are 
working...some I know are at 640x480 and 800x600.

Thanks!
