XFree86 --
This could fundamentally be a Red Hat issue, but maybe I can recover
with a word of advice from you.
I have a video card I got over a year ago and for which I've lost the

Since I've been having some problems getting XFree86 to come up
properly, I've been wondering if I shouldn't just get a new video card
to eliminate the uncertainty of what card to specify in the config
