Computer Specs: Inspiron 1520 Laptop: Intel Core 2 Duo T5250 (1.5GHz/667Mhz FSB/2MB cache) 128MB NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS I went to NVIDIA's website and downloaded and installed the driver for my graphics card here - http://www.nvidia.com/object/solari... I ran nvidia-xconfig and it created a new xorg config file. However, when I reboot my labtop it says X-Server can not be started on display :0 with following error report - SUNWxorg-graphics-ddx package version: 6.8.0.5.10.7400,REV=0.2004.12.15 SUNWxorg-graphics-ddx patches applied: 125720-10 SUNWxorg-mesa package version: 6.8.2.5.10.0113,REV=0.2005.08.02 SUNWxorg-mesa patches applied: 125720-10 125724-01 Before reporting problems, check http://sunsolve.sun.com/ to make sure that you have the latest version.

You might have not installed it correctly either. See also edits for xorg file. "Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10
