[Newbie]XF86Config file and Dell Inspiron 7500

Just FYI, I just installed RedHat 7.3 on a Dell Inspiron 7500. I found that the default install created an XF86Config file ( /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 ) which had too restrictive of a vertical refresh rate. This cause the modes for 1400 x 1050 to be rejected by X. On Red Hat 7.3, To get your Dell

Re: [Newbie]Xfbdev starts with random colors

Ok. I've just recompiled Xfree version 4.1, using exactly the same host.def file. Now Xfbdev always starts with the same colors, but they are a bit "psyco" (pink foreground with green and blue foreground combination). So it seems there's something wrong the palette or color definition.
