DSL Linux on the Omnibook 800CT - Part 2

OK, here's my annotated minimal XF86Config-4 file - it's quite a bit shorter than your typical sample file but works for me:

# XFree86 has has built-in defaults for font file paths
Section "Files"
ModulePath "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules"
EndSection

# Desktop rendering isn't quite right without these
# DRI/GLX are way beyond the Neomagic chip!
Section "Module"
Load "dbe"
Load "extmod"
Load "freetype"
Load "record"
Load "type1"
EndSection

# I have a UK Omnibook
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard[0]"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
Option "XkbLayout" "gb"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse[0]"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Omnibook"
Driver "neomagic"
EndSection

# Auto mode selection doesn't work without sync/refresh rates
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor[0]"
HorizSync 31.5 - 48.5
VertRefresh 50.0 - 70.0
EndSection

# I only intend to run 800x600x16
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen[0]"
Device "Omnibook"
Monitor "Monitor[0]"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
EndSection
