RE: X troubles
Yeah, I think that was a thin on the information - sorry about that.
I ran XF86Setup, the graphics version and my video card is not listed so
I chose the standard vga. I knew it wouldn't be great, but at least a
start. On the monitor I first selected from the bottom of the list of
abilities. I also chose 800x600 with 16 bpp (my first attempt was much
higher). The results was a very fuzzy screen, and ctrl-shift-bkspace...
My monitor has a range from Horiz 30-96 and Vert 50-160 and that doesn't
work either.
The graphics card is an AGP so nothing seems to detect it, and from what
I have read nVidia is only starting to be supported by Linux (is that
correct?).

Hi, we are new to telepathy and having troubles finding out what's wrong
with your X setup.
And more details will be greatly appreciated.
Some suggestions:
* Where you are up to in an install.
* What you have tried doing to configure X.
* What happens when you try to run X.
