If you have XFree86 4.2 run `X -configure' or `XFree -configure' to get a
baseline XF86Config file. This shouldn't overwrite your existing
XF86Config file but I don't know what RedHat has done to X. Then just
tailor it for your needs. Version 4.2 of XFree does a pretty good job of
finding out what hardware you have.
