If you are unsureof anything in this process, a good source of additional documentationis:<p><blockquote><font size=-1><tt><pre>http://www.xfree86.org</pre></tt></font></blockquote><p><a name="i101"> <a name="i102"><tt>Xconfigurator</tt> is a full-screen menu driven program that walks youthrough setting up your X server. <tt>XF86Setup</tt> is a graphical setupprogram distributed with XFree86 which requires the VGA 16-color serverin order to run. <tt>xf86config</tt> is a line oriented programdistributed with XFree86. It isn't as easy to use as <tt>Xconfigurator</tt>, but it is included for completeness. If theseutilities fail to provide a working <tt>XF86config</tt> file, you may havean unsupported card or you may need to write the config file by hand.Usually the former is the case, so check and make sure your card issupported before attempting to write the config file yourself. If yourcard is not supported by XFree86 you may wish to consider using acommercial X server, such as the Metro-X server which accompaniesOfficial Red Hat Linux/Intel. If you have questions about whether or not yourvideo card is supported you can check out <tt>http://www.xfree86.org</tt>for information on XFree86 and <tt>http://www.metrolink.com</tt> forinformation on Metro-X.<a name="i103"><p><h3><a name="s5.2.1">5.2.1 The X Server</a></h3><title>The X Server</title><a name="i104"><a name="i105">Provided you selected the proper video card at install time, you shouldhave the proper X server installed. When later running<tt>Xconfigurator</tt> or <tt>xf86config</tt>, you need to make sure you select the same video card or the autoprobe will fail.<p>If you think you installed the wrong X server for your video card, you will have to install the correct one before it can be configured. For instance, if the CD is mounted on <tt>/mnt/cdrom</tt>, and you need to install the S3 server, enter the following commands:<p><a name="i106"><p><blockquote><font size=-1><tt><pre>cd /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMSrpm -ivh XFree86-S3-3.1.2-1.i386.rpmln -sf ../../usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_S3 /etc/X11/X</pre></tt></font></blockquote><p>This will install the S3 server and make the proper symbolic link.<p><h3><a name="s5.2.2">5.2.2 Xconfigurator</a></h3><title>Xconfigurator</title><a name="i107">To configure X Windows you must first select your video card. Scroll downthe list of supported cards until you locate the card in your machine. Section <a href="doc038.html#s5.2.2.1">5.2.2.1</a> may help you determine the video serverthat matches your hardware. If your card is not listed it may not be supported by XFree86. In this case you can try the last card entry on the list (Unlisted Card) or a commercial X Windows server, such as Metro X. The next step is to select your monitor. If your monitor is not listed you canselect one of the generic monitor entries or ``Custom'' and enter yourown parameters. Custom monitor configuration is recommended only forthose who have a sound understanding of the inner workings of CRTdisplays. The average user should probably use one of the generic selectionsfrom the list. After selecting a monitor you need to tell Xconfiguratorhow much video memory you have. Move the highlight to the appropriatelist entry and then press <tt>[Enter]</tt> or <tt>[F12]</tt> to continue.For the next step it is recommended that you select thedefault (No Clockchip Setting) entry, but experienced users maywant to select a specific clockchip. <p><h4><a name="s5.2.2.1">5.2.2.1 Selecting your Server</a></h4><title>Selecting your Server</title>If you are unsure what chip-set you have, the best way to find out is usuallyto look at the card.
