iLamp 17" with GeForce4(nv) and YDL 3.0 XF86Config needed! - Try this!

[Joe Arrigo]

Colin,

Try this, it seems to have worked for me on my iMac/iLamp 17":

run /usr/X11R6/bin/Xautoconfig (as root, of course)
This should create a new "useable" /etc/X11/XF86Config file
In the driver section, remove Option "DPMS" and replace with
Option "FlatPanel"

Season to taste...

Also, here is my XF86Config file:

# File generated by Xautoconfig.
Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier      "XFree86 Configured"
        Screen          0  "Screen0" 0 0
        InputDevice     "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice     "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "Files"
# RgbPath is the location of the RGB database.  Note, this is the name of 
the
# file minus the extension (like ".txt" or ".db").  There is normally
# no need to change the default.

# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.

       RgbPath      "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
       FontPath     "unix/:7100"
