I found a nice tool called 'xf86cfg', a graphical XFree86-4 
configuration tool, http://www.xfree86.org/4.0.2/xf86cfg.1.html .

But id didn't work and there were some error's about font's.

Is there any way to make this tool work? I'll try the good ol' 
'xf86config' too.

But not today, cya later..
