Hi there, I'm using your potato debs of Branden's Xfree 4.0 packages (version 4.0.1-8), with an AGP Matrox G400, a 2.4.0-test12 kernel compiled with DRI support. Not finding any directions to the contrary, I just installed the packages using apt and then ran xf86cfg. It refused to start up. The log file of the session is attached. If there's something I've obviously missed, I apologise, but I have looked. Is this a bug? Any help would be much appreciated. -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Robert Merkel [EMAIL PROTECTED] "We are excited and optimistic about its usage going forward and, yes, we can teach penguins the military close-order drill", Mark Norton, US Department of Defense. ------------------------------------------------------------
