Has anyone had luck getting X 3.3.6 to run with 4.0-RELEASE on this piece of
garbage Compaq 1750? It sports an ATI Rage PRO LT chip. I have no problems
running Linux on it at 1024X768, but Linux is garbage and slow compared to
BSD. I even tried to modify the config file for X from the Linux install. I
can't even get the graphical setup programs to run. It simply goes to run
XF86Setup and just blanks the screen, but does not lock the install.

Help!
