Courtesy of apt in #debian: To set up X in woody, sarge or sid, "apt-get install discover read-edid mdetect && dpkg --force-depends -P xserver-xfree86 && apt-get install xserver-xfree86" Accept all of debconf's suggested values - they should be correct. This will auto-detect your video card, monitor settings, and mouse type, and should leave you with a working X. Geordie. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
