11135	2001-04-10 10:29:00	I have decided to teach myself how to use Linux. So I installed Redhat Linux 7.0. Linux boots, I log in, I type 'startx' to load the GUI and I get the following errors: (WW) Warning, couldn't open module v41 (EE) Failed to load module v41 (module does not exist, 0 ) (EE) No devices detected Fatal Server Error. no screens found I have tryed typing 'xf86config' and configuring my system perfectly, but I still have the same problem. If there are any Linux gurus out there I would really appreciate some advice....Thanks...	Guest (0)

Another thing you can do is email me your /etc/xf86config file or if it can't be found there, try /etc/X11/xf86config In that email could you also tell me how much video memory you have and what type of monitor you use (and it's refresh rates if you know these). With this information I should be able to tell you what is causing your problems and make any adjustments to your xf86config file. regards Bruce Flyger	Guest (0)

To do this you'll need to get the appropriate RPMs for the X server and your video card, and install them from the command line.	Guest (0)
