I was suggested two solutions for the above problem :
1. comment out the Virtual line in the Screen section.
2. put a virtual line with the mode I want.
both these two failed to work.
I have 4 screen section for VGA server, SVGA server, Monochrome server
and Acclerated server. during Xconfiguration I chose the SVGA and that
subsection doesn't have any virtual statement. Still I tried both the
above methods. none worked.
I have NVIDIA Riva TNT2 video card with 32 MB ram.
please help, if you have any guess about the source of this problem. thanks.
