18 I got an adapter. What I do need to know is:
19 - How can I use the initial console?
20 - Do I need the framebuffer console?
21 - I have an Intel 915 integrated graphics card - what do I have to put into
22 xorg.cfg?
23 - Is there a danger that I might destroy the monitor w/ incorrect settings?
24 Ciao,
