I've got a TWINHEAD SL9T-166CZ (laptop) with Redhat 5.0. The X-Server is
unable to start. He writes 'can't find valid mode'. I put the right values
of the refresh rate of my LCD screen (detected by the XServer). I use the
SVGA and VGA16 X-servers.I don't know what to do ?

I need help !!!!!!!!

I ahve got the same notebook and one thing you got to make sure is that
you are running XFree86 3.2.x.

Also, just set the LCD frequency at standard VGA initially so that you can
at least get X-winodws going..

About hte invalid modes. You have to manually edit hte XF86Config file and
adjust the mode lines so that it matches with the refresh rates for the
LCD.
