Re: X Windows System will not start
I have gathered some additional information. The following is the output of
lspci:

It appears from 01.00.0 that there is a valid controller perhaps not the
best one but it should do something.

I dont pretend to understand this but these are the modules installed.
Question is are they the correct modules?
I am still working on the rest of the last post. Dpkg-reconfigure
xserver-xfree86 will not run it says that XFree86-Config-4 is not installed
and quits the program. I also ran dselect and selected the configure option
and tryed again. Same output as before. Hope this helps.
