(a copy XF86Config would be nice > also :-)) Attached is the XF86Config that I use. As somebody else mentioned, you might want to upgrade to a newer version of X - I am using 3.3.5. I have a UK keyboard - you will probably want to edit that bit. I do have one problem: Using Fn-F5 you can cycle the video output between TFT only, VGA output only, and both. The latter is preferable when using the machine to give a presentation. This works fine under windows (NT), and it works fine in the Linux console. However, in X, when I switch to "both" mode, both screens are corrupt. So I suspect that the modelines in my config file could be improved...
