Hi,
Did not work for me. I made my xorg.conf to look like yours but I get the
following error and i was also getting the xtsol module not found but that
was cleared up when i installed trusted-xorgserver. current error:
NV(0): No valid intial configuration found
Screens found, but none have a usable configuration
Fatal server error:
no screens found
so i thought issuing "Xorg -configure" might help but it did not i get the
same error
xorg-conf file created from Xorg -configure cmd:
