This is a leftover file from a previously-crashed editing session. You
can just remove the file .X.err.swp
Love to but have never been avle to find the delete command in bash. Could you
tell me what it is?

That X.err is suspiciously sort; it would normally have much more
information after that point.
in vi i just press the down button and it doesn't go down beyond that - am I
doing it right?
What video card do you have in this PC and what's in the
"Device"
section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
There are several 'device' sections. I'm guessing you want this one:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard"
Driver "trident"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Trident CyberBlade (generic)"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identify "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "Unknown"
HorizSync 31.5-37.9
VertRefresh 50.0 - 70.0
Option "dpms"
EndSection
I haven't checked if these are rigth, but I can't see why they'd be wrong, I
had fc2 running fine (remember that the whole point of this is to get fc3
running with minimal graphics)
Can you run system-config-display? Does it appear to work?
Nope that killed it.

btw, when I log in it says "You have mail" wtf? I certainly don't - not from
any network at least.
