I inserted the above lines directly under the Boardname. When I ran startx I
got an error indicating that the ChipId was not understood. It had ^^^^^^ shown
under the word. I configured the card as
    Unlisted
    Custom Monitor
    Noprobe
    2 MB Ram
    No Ramdac (recommended)
    No clockchip (recommended)
Thank for your reply, any other ideas I can try ?????????????????!!?
