Have you executed the command "xf86config" (or maybe "XF86Config" or
"Xf86config") ? Linux is case-sensitive, so maybe try some options of the
command, if the ones I've given don't function.

Use this program to configure your X-Windows. This is in text mode. After
finishing give "X" or "startx" to start X-Windows.

Please write back if this help you, and even if this didn't help you.

Rgds,
Nirav
