You can also do:
XFree86 -configure
as root. This will make /root/XF86Config.new. Then run:
XFree86 -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new
If X loads, you're in. Take the screen settings and put them in your distros
standard XF86Config file. Avoid using the full /root/XF86Config.new file,
although it will work fine.
