The same fool then couldn't figure out why the X server was saying there was no device definition in XF86Config when more /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config said there was. Then the brain cells woke up and remembered that the X server looks for config file in users root before /usr/X11R6 !! Stupid computers)

As a newbie (and a big fool too, I am sure) I don't have the necessary knoledge to change configurations without great danger. I don't even know yet where the many config files are hidden. So, I'm using only RAM standard installation to try mulinux in my home computer, where I have also an experimental full Linux (brazilian Conectiva).
I can guarantee that mulinux was able to configure X11 in my computer from 6r4 to 7r3b (without any configuration file change). Now it seems it doesn't find a suitable mode anymore.
Look at the startx error log below, please.
