And now there is more, startx burns up completely:
i get a 'failed to initialize kernel module' (which is installed and loaded
without error)
And then it complains about not being able to find any screens, although if i
change XF86Config-4 to use nv as the driver it works fine (for 2d anyway).

is the card a pci or agp? what slot is it in? it must in the slot next to the
agp slot, and the network card should not be in the slot next to it or next
to the isa slots if possible. your BIOS "should" have settings to set a

Another note:
If you don't need serial ports, disable them. You might be able to enable
USB and still disable its IRQ in the BIOS as well. Disable all unneeded
parallel ports. If he doesn't have any devices on the floppy controller
(e.g., I don't have a floppy drive in my system), disable it.
In the BIOS settings, find the advanced hardware properties. In there,
there should be an option to disable "IRQ for VGA" (that is, take away the
video card's IRQ). That's how all my systems are set up, and it works for
me (tm). Then tell it to "Reset ECSD Data" (this clears the IRQ-device

In the release notes for the most recent 2.4 kernel test version, it
states that PNP OS set to Yes is under development currently.
Generally, I disable that feature regardless of what I install on the
system. Windows tends to get baffled by it, and quitefrankly, I never
even bothered to try it

Basically, your BIOS can provide PnP information, as well as your OS.
Pnp OS Installed is On = BIOS will not provide this info [because Windows prefers
not to receive it, and might get confused because it can see more of your hardware
than the BIOS can, sometimes]
