I've just installed woody for the first time and I can't get X to run.
It was surgested that I upgrade to xfree V4.2.1-6 from
http://people.fsn.hu/~pasztor/debian
I did that and still it will not run.

I've tried running
dpkg-recomfigure xserver-xfree86
xf86config

Hardware: Matrox G550 card and a HP M700 Monitor.

I have had Mandrake 8.1 working OK on this hardware before very well. So
confused about what to do now.

I have no idea what I should do know, any one.
Thanks
James
