Love to but have never been avle to find the delete command in bash. Could you 
tell me what it is?

in vi i just press the down button and it doesn't go down beyond that - am I 
doing it right?

There are several 'device' sections. I'm guessing you want this one:

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Videocard"
 Driver "trident"
 VendorName "Videocard vendor"
 BoardName "Trident CyberBlade (generic)"
EndSection

Section "Device"
 Identify "Monitor0"
 VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
 ModelName "Unknown"
 HorizSync  31.5-37.9
 VertRefresh 50.0 - 70.0
 Option  "dpms"
EndSection

I haven't checked if these are rigth, but I can't see why they'd be wrong, I 
had fc2 running fine (remember that the whole point of this is to get fc3 
running with minimal graphics)

Nope that killed it.

btw, when I log in it says "You have mail" wtf? I certainly don't - not from 
any network at least.
