Hi,
  I have just installed linux on my 486DX-33 with 4mb ram. It run fine,
but when i try to run Xwin (Xfree86 2.1.1) it gives me the error:
	Fatal Server Error:
		No Config File Found

I am using the S3 accell driver. I have only a minimal knowledge of linux
(or unix in general), so simple instrutions would be appreciated. 

I'm basically not sure how to set up a config file, where to put one, what
format it has to be in, or what to put in it. I have a Diamond 24VLB and a
Viewsonic 5E monitor. I installed linux (seems to be only 1.0.9, i got it
from monu1.cc.monash.edu.au), with the install program also refering to
the InstallationHowtofile i got somewhere. 

Any help would be appreciated, thanx in advance.

Later, Drake
