I don't know whether 3.3.6 is included with RH 7.3 (it was with all the previous RH 7.x) If it is you can do as Shane suggested BUT in /etc/X11 NOT in /usr/X11R6/bin (at least in my RH setup this is the one which is used...). However, the config file is not anymore the same... Theoretically you

the ones included with distributions sometimes don't work perfectly, more likely to have wider chip coverage if you download X separately, i got it with slackware and it pooped, i downloaded separate and it works better, not perfectly, but still.  if you try a download of an older version it mig

Try what I did earlier today. In /usr/X11R6/bin, replace the softlink X -> XFree86 with -> XFree86_SVGA. Check that the SVGA server exists, and install the rpm if it doesn't. This very simply forces the system to use the 3.3.? server. Shane > > > -Original Message- > > > From: [

It would be interesting to know which version of X you run (if it's 3.3.x then your card may be not supported...) I don't know freeBSD well enough to be of more help as to where the log is stored (in Linux it's in /var/log/XFree86.0.log on top is the version number) doing X -version (in Linux)
