Ok Mark,
I joined the file in attachement. Note that
I took the one in /etc/X11 and not the one in /etc.
And here are my "progress":
As no setting was working, I have reinstall everything with
Dell 1024*780 LCD and it was not working either.
But I used the rescue mode to edit the inittab and now
I can boot in level 3 with an NIC working. :-)
I also used wget to download the last driver
(NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1.run) from nvidia
and executed the sh script.
Then it complained about some compiler mismatch version.
I joined the log file also.
Anyway, thanks a lot for all your help. I already installed
RH9 on our servers, configured apache, sendmail,.. and I never
had such problems. But obviously our servers hardware were more
common I suppose than the one found on my laptop.
