Hi,

I'm setting up linux 2.2 on a Presario 721 and am
having trouble getting my xserver to start, at least I
assume that is why startx crashes.  Does someone know
what xserver I need to install?  The video chipset is
a VIA KN133, which according to the VIA site has
"integrated S3 graphics ... ".  I found in my
distribution an xserver-s3 and so installed that.  
I'm not even sure if the xserver is the problem.  My
monitor resolution is 1024x768.  I selected that with
75 Hz refresh.

If someone knows what xserver I need, that would at
least narrow my troubleshooting permutations down by a
factor of 10 (the number of xservers I have
avaialable.)

Any other tips, for example a completed XF86Config
file for Presario 721 ;) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
  Damon
