You say it had Linux on it; was that Debian or something else? If it was Debian, what version? If it was newer than Woody, try $(apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg), then reinstall it. If it was Woody or older, or not Debian, then I recommend you wipe it and install Debian from scratch. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
