January in Dover. Everyone has something to contribute so look forward to seeing you there. (Updated location details will be on <a href="http://kent.lug.org.uk">kent.lug.org.uk</a> before the event).<br><br>It sounds like you have an Xorg problem. But I know nothing even though I have spent a lot of time in the dark with a command prompt myself :-) I usually asked someone cleverer for help. Do you know if you have ATI or Nvidia graphics card?
<br><br>I am sure someone clever will be along shortly :-)<br></div></div><br>Colin<br>
