-configure. This will produce a functional config file to test in the /root
directory. If you like it you can then move it to replace the borked
Let's see if I've gotten around my message-sending problems...
I would blow off everything here and just go with the very simple and
reliable XFree86 -configure as root from a CLI. It does everything you

Generally, the higher the FPS (higher is much better), the better performance
on things like games you can expect. It doesn't matter what your eye can
