Hi, Just tried to install RH Linux 7.0 for the 1st time. Unsurprisingly, had a problem post-install with configuring X-Windows. I think this is due to my graphics card (a nVidia GEForce2 Ultra 64Mb). My machine spec is 1200MHz Athlon, 60Gb HD, Soundblaster Platinum Live! sound card, 256Mb RAM.
Resulting problem is that I cant get into X-Windows. I've attached my XFree86.9.log file and the XF86Config-4 file for scrutiny. Sorry it's so long. I'm totally new to this game, and would appreciate any help at all. Oh, and please keep replies as non-technical as possible! Many thanks!!
