I've installed Red Hat 7.1 (with XFree86 4.0.3) on an Dell Latitude XPi P133ST
(NeoMagic 2070 video controller) but I'm having some problems with the display
under X. When I move a window it does not refresh properly (although anything
below the window does refresh properly). Also, when I move the mouse to about
an inch from the right edge of the screen a small white square appears under
the mouse cursor and a vertical line of moving white dots also appears. I've
played with the XF86Config-4 file, but I have not been able to remedy the
problem. Although, I have not been able to find the horizontal or
vertical sync rates for the laptop screen, so I've been shooting in the
dark. Any ideas how to fix this problem?

Thanks,

Steven.

support.dell.com? They have some X configs for DL. Don't know if
4.0.3 is mentioned.
