(MthrBrd BIOS update fixed it) Where should I look, specifically, for info on how to use the man pages, what other editor to use (not vi), how to configure the PATH environment to include the current dir. in it? Also, it seems when I type "X" something happens, the screen goes blank, but I see the mouse crosshairs. I have a Diamond Stealth 64 VRAM (w/2MB) S3-964, a Samsung 15GLi (31-65kHz Hor.) (50-120Hz Ver.) I put all these in when I configured XFree86. What could the prob. be? Thanks, T. Roberts
