I know that the old version of XFree86 used XF86Config and the new version uses XF86Config-4. But why is there both in the X11 dir and which should I be changing? Does XFree86 first load the XF86Config and then the XF86Config-4? I couldn't find an explanation in the docs. Also If I have X working with the older 3.3 or 4.0 can I use the XF86Config file for it for the new XF86 and should it work if it worked with 3.3 or 4.0?
This Thinkpad 760XL with the trident 9385 chip at 800x600 is driving me crazy. At first I thought the problem may be with RedHat as the Xconfig during the install works. I can see the screen just fine but after reboot it's hosed. But I've also tried Debian and it also has the same problem. I really don't want to make this a windows only machine but as of now that's the only thing that will run on it as far as a GUI is concerned. I've tried many different XF86Config files and Hz and Vert sync with no luck. I've even spent time with Alan on this problem. I don't know what changed between 4.0 and 4.2 but what ever it was broke the 760XL in anything other than standard SVGA mode. I have to rule out the hardware as windows and RedHat 7.1 run fine on it.
