Hello, I have a system with the following graphics card: Nvidia GeForce 7100 / nForce 620i It was never supported by Xorg's nv driver. However, without an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, I could run "startx" and X would start up and I was able to run twm. I suspect it was using the vesa driver or fbdev. After upgrading to Xorg-7.4, that stopped working. Now if I try to run "startx" *without* /etc/X11/xorg.conf, I get the following: http://www.eskimo.com/~joji/x11/startx_no_xorg_conf.log The corresponding Xorg.0.log is: http://www.eskimo.com/~joji/x11/Xorg.0.log_no_xorg_conf If I try "X -configure", I get: http://www.eskimo.com/~joji/x11/X_-configure.log When I try to run "startx", I get the following: http://www.eskimo.com/~joji/x11/startx_xorg_conf.log The corresponding Xorg.0.log is: http://www.eskimo.com/~joji/x11/startx_xorg_conf.log The xorg.conf file is: http://www.eskimo.com/~joji/x11/xorg.conf Has anybody else run into the same/similar issues after upgrade to Xorg-7.4? Does anybody have any suggestions that they can offer? Thanks in advance for reading and trying to offer suggestions. regards, josephhelp
