Hi Paul,

Thankx for your reply. This will make things more different. I have seen
the post with the patches (hope to find 'em again in the archives). I use
a 21' crt monitor with the card and I think there is a slightly chance
of success. I will keep the list informed about the success or failure
of building XFree 4.1 - if someone can help - help is appreciated.

Yours,

Uli
