cbagger01,

it certainly looks as if I'm not booting via anything new.  What do I need to look at/change to ascertain/fix this?  

The C&T card isn't 'officially' supported, but is offered as an option in the xf86config utility.  

Thanks,

--Aidan

Are you logging in as username "dsl"?

The /home/dsl/.xserverrc changes will only work if you are user "dsl".

Otherwise, you should change the .xserverrc for the appropriate username (root, newuser, etc)

Also, I assume that this is your XF86Config. If not, give it a try:

Try pressing CTRL ALT +

to scroll through the other graphics modes.

D'OH!

And after a little bit of tweaking IT'S FINALLY WORKING!

Thankyou cbagger1, ke4nt1 and mikshaw for your assistance - it is much appreciated.  

Off now to write a howto for my machine so other hapless newbs don't bug you.

Take care,

--Aidan
