Hi,

I just installed extended HDD DSL on an old laptop.  At some point, I got a message saying that fbdev (or something similar) was better for older laptops.  I selected the other option by mistake!!!!  I now wan't to set-up my X properly.  Can anybody help?

BTW, I did a dmesg | more, and can't see any reference to my video hardware.

Thanks,

Chris.

shutdown your xserver:
rightclick-->windowmanager-->exit

at the prompt type xsetup.sh

good luck
