Hey all-
So I downloaded the most recent nVidia drivers for my GeForce 2 Ultra video card. When I edit the XF86Config-4 file to say Driver "nvidia" my computer won't boot into the XServer. It gets to the point at which it should load the environment, blacks out, flashes a few times, then winds up at the console screen - as if I had loaded up in failsafe The error here is: Fatal Server Error: No screens found. Attached are my XF86Config and XF86Config-4 files. Thanks for the help in advance! |

Add the below details to your XF86Config-4 file. The XF86Config file is far from complete and will not work as is. You should check the first ~10 or so lines of your /var/log/XFree86.0.log for which config file is in use.... it explicitly tells you which was used to launch the X server.
Code:
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Virtual 1600 1200
Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" ## add more desired modes here ##
EndSubsection
