Configuring X
Since I've been told this might help out others in the group...
This is what I get when I type startx
[bunch of stuff scrolls by and then the screen blanks out for a second
and then the screen says]

i've configured things by using XF86Setup since I can't call the config
file by typing it. For card I select Unsupported VGA compatible (since
I do not know what kind of card it is- except that it is VGA, EGA(?),
PGA(?) from my boot screen). For monitor Standard VGA, 640x480 @ 60 Hz.
Modeselection 640x480.
That's it. Thanks.
Mouse and keyboard no problem.
