[-- Attachment #1 --] The XF86Setup doesn't exist for 4.1. There is a little utility call x86cfg I believe, look for some like that. It's a bit helpful. It works better after you have done the XFree86 -config. But I ended up having to edited the config file by hand. But, it's not hard and it well worth it, IMHO. Roderick P.
