Please help. Problem configuring X on Dell Optiplex GX260 RH 7.3

[Paul Sutton]

http://reviews.zdnet.co.uk/hardware/desktops/0,39023845,10001560,00.htm

This review  (see link above) reveals that this computer has intel 
extreme graphics chipset,  also has a AGP slot and Dell offer ATI 
graphics solutions

While this link 
http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/cs-010512.htm?iid=graphics+845main& 

has advice on Linux related issues.

Hope this helps

Paul
