I'd suggest to build X with following video drivers: "intel radeon nv nvidia sis via xgi vesa", since that covers 90% (or even more) of modern built-in video adapters. Then issue "X -configure" as root and X will produce appropriate xorg.conf in "/root/xorg.conf.new" with all the possible parameters for your card, so you won't have to figure them out yourself. You can also remove all the drivers but the one chosen by X and "vesa" (in case something breaks or you get a new card) afterwards. -- Mike Kazantsev // fraggod.net
