Yeah, I think that was a thin on the information - sorry about that. I ran XF86Setup, the graphics version and my video card is not listed so I chose the standard vga. I knew it wouldn't be great, but at least a start. On the monitor I first selected from the bottom of the list of abilities. I also chose 800x600 with 16 bpp (my first attempt was much higher). The results was a very fuzzy screen, and ctrl-shift-bkspace...
My monitor has a range from Horiz 30-96 and Vert 50-160 and that doesn't work either. The graphics card is an AGP so nothing seems to detect it, and from what I have read nVidia is only starting to be supported by Linux (is that correct?).

Hi, we are new to telepathy and having troubles finding out what's wrong with your X setup. And more details will be greatly appreciated. Some suggestions: * Where you are up to in an install. * What you have tried doing to configure X. * What happens when you try to run X.
