[Techtalk] problems with X after installing Fedora Core 3

[Darlene Wallach]

I spoke with someone who suggested
I google my video card + linux

The answer was to modify
/etc/X11/xorg.config

Section "Device"
         Identifier  "Videocard0"
         Driver      "i810"
         VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
         BoardName   "Intel 810"
         Option      "Noaccel"
EndSection

I added
Option "Noaccel"

That fixed the problem. Some fix in xorg
will allow me to remove that line.

What I don't understand is why did X
work for a while and then go screwy.

Just thought I'd post what fixed it
in case anyone else is having the
same problem and didn't know to
google the video card + linux.
