Mandrale install problems

[Mike Cantrell]

So, now your automated install's X doesn't work? Try running XF86Setup. That
should allow you to go in and select your video card, mouse, etc.

BTW, DrakConf resides in /usr/X11R6/bin wich may not be in your path. It
won't do you any good unless X is running though.

Regards,
Mike Cantrell
