The first is /bin/dmesg The second is cat /var/log/XFree86.0.log Also check out these pages http://www.mepis.org/node/view/676 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/sh...threadid=116159 XF86Config_4

Sue, I had exactly the same problems as you - and I did manage to solve them in the end (mostly) following the instruction listed by NBN here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ar...004/01/3/122744 Those instructions aren't much help when it comes to answering all of the questions that fglrxconfig throws at you. Unfortunately I don't have those details on me at the moment. I'll try to get them to you in a day or so. VB
