Re: Help with X

[John Bell <john.bell@borg-hive.net>]

Steve,

Thanks for the reply.  The embedded video is an SiS630 chip.  I have
since found a driver that supports the chipset at 
http://www.winischhofer.net/linuxsis630.shtml , but I still have one
problem.  I have a narrow strip along the lefthand border of the screen
about 1/2" wide (uniform top to bottom) that the mouse just skips over. 
If I move the mouse into this region it jumps off the screen.  I makes
clicking in this region extremely difficult.  I have been playing with
the XF86Config-4 driver options to no awail.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

John
