Subject: Thinkpad 560 X-Windows Config help needed
> Hello All-
>
> I have a Thinkpad 560 (264050A) that my research indicates to me has a
> Trident Cyber 9385 video card with 1MB VRAM. I am new to Linux, but this
> weekend I installed RedHat 7.0. However, I have been unable to
successfully
> configure X-Windows.
>
> After a good deal of tinkering with the XF86Config file, X will start, but
> will display a black screen with two horizontal lines. Pressing a
> Function-F7 combo changes this to a completely black screen. However, the
> system is unresponisive and I have to use Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to kill X and
> return to a command prompt.
>
> Does anyone out there have helpful advice, or better yet, a working config
> file?
