Well, This is Srik...
For some reason, my replies to newsgroup as a whole is failing..

Ok,, I reconfigured the X settings..but is not working well..No I did not
change the hardware at any point of time...
It is like this,,, I installed RedHat 7.0 and it was working fine(X ),,
However my application is not supported on 7.0 and so I upgraded my machine
to 7.2.. All was fine and the X was working and all that.. all the
functionalities are fine... And one day, when I started my machine,, the
Start X would not work....After several attempts and reading every newsgroup
and documentation , I am seeking your help...I know it is a small issue and
since I am a new to installing linux, I am sure it got to be a minor
problem,, hence my request..

My deadline is to complete a project before Dec 25 , however with this X
problem in place, I am running behind schedule which is hampering my
progress.. I got to use the X windows which I have been using to developing
an application...

Please help me.... this is critical..

Thanks
Srik
