You should probably try 'system-config-display --reconfig'. It may be that your current xorg.conf has something not parse-able in it, the --reconfig switch starts from scratch. Worth a try, anyway. Remember, paranoia is a good thing, make a copy of your xorg.conf first! BTW, this just works with X11's configuration file, it doesn't have any dependency on Gnome or KDE. -- Jay Leafey - Memphis, TN jay.leafey at mindless.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
