Hallo all,

	After Frying my brain for 8 hours playing with getting my very
first Red Hat 5.2 Linux loaded under my win98 drive I have reached my
first major goal.!   Getting X-windows to even load and be usable hee
hee.  But in answer to your question, I noticed there were two
"options" for configuring x-windows.....I may stand corrected,
(remember me be a newbie at this, but not for long)  but back to the
point.  I used the Xconfigurator to setup my x-windows.....from the
root prompt...Everything was ok even thou it doesn't know squat about
my Voodoo 30000 AGP and had to use cheapy, generic setup's...

But hey it works...Not that I know what the hell to do with it but it
Works lol....Now my next major step is to figure how the heck to get
my "windowed" screen to fit my monitor and not be like 4 sizes to
big..That is my major question for now..if you or anyone reading this
3 cents worth of info could also help fire away...!
