RE: Problems installinf XFree 4.2 on Woody
I've already tried that, but that way I can only configure my video card
as a Generic VGA, and like that I can only use 256 Kb of video RAM (I
have 2048 Kb), so it doesn't work for me...
Thanks for your help!

Hello,
You can try xf86conf or xf86config (i don't remember) that will write a
config file that is called XF86config.
I always use this file and move XF86Config-4 somewhere as backup in case
something goes really wrong.
Have fun,
Klaus
