I need it in order to configure the X11 server be able to display 
anything at all, instead of reporting error messages upon startx

screen not found

is this about forgetfulness?
i have to setup the entire XF86Config file so the system eventually 
knows what to do.
i have to hack-in weird info on the on-board graphical chip, device 
driver for it, monitor, and screens and a few other
	things impossible to guess, unless from a file which is result of a 
successful configuration.


thanks in advance
