I've tried so many things, that I'm totally confused. After installing xorg-x11, I ran Xorg -configure. It gives me a file with no horizontal or vertical sync. I tried using the ddcxinfo-knoppix tool, but when I did ddxcinfo-knoppix -hsync, it returned 0 0. When I did ddxcinfo-knoppix -modelines, it didn't have a matching mode for my monitor - the default being 1920x1200. I assume that because I don't have a horizontal and vertical sync in my xorg.conf file that's why the screen becomes all garbled when startx bombs out. Xorg.0.log tells me that there is no core keyboard or mouse. I've built support into the kernel. in /dev/input/ there are choices for mice mouse0 and mouse1. I've tried using all of these and trying various drivers, but nothing works. Does anyone have a Dell Inspiron M1710 and will let me take a look at their xorg.conf file? Any and all help would be appreciated. Regards, Colleen -- Registered Linux User #411143 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
