During installation, I face some problems when i was downloading the package, it will temp stop for about few minutes which i nearly going to re-install it again. After install it didn't show me with the correct VGA mode, my laptop can support 1024x768, but it force me to use 800x600, so I have to change it mannualy in etc/X11/XF86Config-4 Btw, Good job :-) and thanks -- Teck Khen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
