What video chipset does the Latitude Cpt V466GT use?
I have Linux running on a Dell CPi A-366. It uses the NeoMagic 256 (or
something along that line), and it works great.
1) Check your /etc/X11/XF86Config file to make sure things like 'extern' are
not turned on.
2) Check the X error file for messages.
3) You can also try starting in runlevel 3 and starting X redirecting the
messages:
$startx 2> X.out and read the X.out file.
4) Try specifying a lower pixel depth manually just for starters:
$startx -- -- -bpp 8.
If you'd like, I'll e-mail you my XF86Config file.

I have just installed Redhat 6.1 on to this laptop and everything seems to
be
working fine except for X. After running the startx command it loads X but
I get nothing but a blank screen. Has anyone had success in putting linux
on
this model of laptops? What type of monitor and video settings did you use?
