Very quick and very painless, with one minor exception: I still can't seem to get 800x600 mode.  Everything I've read says that the NM2070 IS capable of 800x600x16-bit, but I can't get it going.

Help?

Check your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file, maybe it's just needing a tweak there.

you may want to chown root.root or nibznik.users to the startx file, also chmod -x ugo to reset it's executable flag (trouble you get saving to a server that uses winblows!)

No luck for me! I tried everything you guys have talked about here and I have a big problem. I think I configured it wrong, how do I reconfigure it?
