Can't get X started with ATI3DExp.



Hello (and thanks for the replies)
 
I've tried Leonid's configuration and got those error lines:
 
Config Error: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config:12
Section "Files"
File Section Keyword Expected
_X11TracesSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
giving up
xinit: connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to x server
xinit: no such process (errno 3): server error
 
I've also tried changing the ChipId and ChipRev, and finally I even reinstalled the all OS again from scratch (reminds a popular action in another popular OS) and still nothing. Each time I start X I get an error or (more usually) a blank screen and the computer got tottaly stuck, and I have to reboot.
 
When I had RH4.2 on my computer with that Hardware configuration I had managed to use the X server (there were only some problems with the mouse configurtration). I don't know which version of XFree86 there was with that linux version but maybe if i upgrade my xfree86 version to 3.3.3 it will help. If no one have any new ideas about what can I do with this version and hardware, could someone please tell me where can I download the 3.3.3 XF version and how do I install it ?
(A very detailed explanation will help me very much because I'm really new to linux).
 
Thanks again,
