Long Pause before X starts

[tmahmood]

before my X starts it freezes for sometimes, It happens after Installing 3D support for My NVIDIA Graphics Card.
My config...

Intel P4 512MB NVIDIA Geforce2 64MB
Ubuntu 5.10
I think its because of the following validation...
how can I fix this?

maybe look at editing you /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file

[tmahmood]

um.... i guess u r talking about xorg.conf file? because there is no such file or directory named "/etc/X11/XF86Config-4"

If you're using X.org like most people are these days, then yes, that's the file to check.

If you use the startx command from the console to enter X, then check your /etc/xinit/xinitrc file (or your distros equiv) to see what it's doing.
