Hello --
I am receiving the error:

fatal server error:
xf86MapVidMem: could not mmap /dev/mem [s=400000,a=4c4b400] (Invalid argument)

Then the machine freezes?  Any Idea's what I have done wrong in my XF86Config file?
(I can e-mail you the config file..)

P5-133 (AMD chip) Diamond Viper PCI (2MB)

thanks
