When I run XF86Setup as root I get a message that reads " not all of the documentation can be found, but setup should still run fine", or something to that nature, I hit enter to continue, then wait 5 seconds before I get dropped back to the prompt. I have tried XF86config to no avail ether. When I execute startx it gives me some error( I am not in front of the system right now) and dumps back to the prompt with out changing the screen at all. Any ways my question is, has anyone out there got X to work with the Nvidia (Hercules 3D Prophet II GTS 64MB) Geforce 2? If so I would love to hear how. Thanks in advance.
