I auto-installed.

First boot gdm tried to load X three times then asked me if I wanted to view the output. I think I have fairly standard hardware (FX5200) (have run x on ubuntu,gentoo etc) see my lspci below.

I tried adding mode lines according to
Code:
`gtf 1280 1024 70 -x`
etc.

Is there a standard FX5200 I can use?

I am currently using a modified version of the one on the wiki. Please see my XF86Config-4 below.

What do I need to change?

Thanks in advance.

I too had a hell of a time gettin X to run with my FX5200. My issue and apparently its not uncommon is a bad burn. With the image being as large as it is it seems to increase the failure rate, here is how I discovered my issue with the help of Xsecrets. the /usr/src/linux dir should have a complete source tree in it, mine only had like 6dirs, I tried to untar the /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.15-chw-2 (or something like that) and the untarring returned "unexpected EOF"

Once I slowe the burn down from 24x to 8x everything went in cleanly with no problems
