I'll know for sure as soon as a take this disck drive with my shiny new 12.0-RELEASE system on it and try to boot it and then run X on it on a wole different system which has a totally different video card. (If X just adapts to the new video card without me having to do anything at all, then I'll be a very happy man.) >The other possibilty would be to use startx und put a ''xset -r'' >command into $HOME/.xinitc. That's how I do it. Ahhhhhhhhhhh! THANK YOU! I really didn't know about this, but this is exactly what I needed. And it even works and does what I need! The exact syntax needed is a little difficult to infer from the man page for xset, but this seems to be the way it is done: xset r rate 300 60 (It wasn't 100% clear from the man page that the keyword "rate" has to be literally there, as shown above, in the command line.) Thanks again. This is WAY better than having to edit xorg.conf files anyway.
