Can't try it for the next hour or so, but I have my doubts anyway. |
| 11 |
/etc/X11/xorg.conf has, in part |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Section "Device" |
| 14 |
Identifier "ati-internal" |
| 15 |
Driver "ati" |
| 16 |
EndSection |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Section "Screen" |
| 19 |
Identifier "Screen1" |
| 20 |
Device "ati-internal" |
| 21 |
Monitor "Westinghouse" |
| 22 |
... |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
And that's the only Device section. Accordingly, I expect startx is going |
| 25 |
to continue to expect a driver named "ati". Which is good, because that's |
| 26 |
the kind of video I have on my motherboard. |
