I am very pleased to have gotten Linux and X (almost) running on my
486, but I still have to iron out a few things. I'm running X8514
(as I have an ATI card) for my server and can run X as root, but not
as a normal user. This would suggest a permissions problem and I am
checking into this, but so far haven't found the problem. So my question
is, can somebody point me to the permissions for the X stuff? I used the
zxfix of disk x7, but the problem persists.

One other thing, (and I ask because I want to make sure it's not
something I'm doing wrong) is that when I'm running X (on a Sony
CPD-1604S) everything seems a bit fuzzy (i.e. slightly out of focus).
While when I run windows everything is crisp. I didn't change the
Xconfig.X8514.

Thanks for any help.
