I still haven't found anything that will work to get X up on my
HP Vectra. Everything I do results in the X server causing the machine to
reboot itself. At this point in time I have configured the system to
use the SVGA generic X servere. Here are the results of X -probeonly
(which BTW doesn;t crash the machine).
