Hi all,

I have just installed Mandrake 7.0 on an intel 440BX mother-board
with Celeron 300a and 64MB ram, and integrated on-board sound-blaster
16 sound hw (sound not setup yet). I have a pci modem plugged in, but
not setup in mandrake. An S3 trio 765 pci video card is used and works
in mandrake.

I have used X86Setup to configure video etc.

When i type XConfigurator on the command-line, a character-graphic screen
says 'Please wait, Preparing X-Window Configuration'.

At this point, everything is frozen and i have to reboot the pc.

Also, when i type in kde, i get an error message like 'cannot open
display'. But when i type kdm, then the kde desktop starts and works ok.

When i installed mandrake graphically, to stop the pc from hanging, i had
to select 'expert-mode', then select 'don't probe for pci devices', to
prevent the hang. I think this might have something to do with XConfigurator
hanging.

How can i make Xconfigurator not hang?
