depending on the distribution you have there are a few different ways.
xfree86config I believe is one way.  But you should look for the video setup
HOWTO (online help files) or the manual for the distribution you have.  I hav
einstalled Corel Linux and it picks up my Video card and sets my screen up
for 1024 x 768 with 16 bit colour by default.  I remember when I installed
Red Hat 5.2 I actually had to download a fix because of my video card.

Good Luck
Rod
