My experience with Accel X (Score 1)

That ad is really ugly. It reminds me of a political campaign ad. Even if it were true it would still be inexcusable. I bought a copy of Accel X about a year ago when I bought my laptop. I got a Digital HiNote 2000. It had a chipset that was only experimentally supported by Xfree (C&T 65554). Accel X was easy to install compared to XFree. However, it had a couple of problems. The worst was several fuzzy vertical lines each about ten pixels wide. It was pretty annoying, but The HiNote was not offically supported by Accel X anyway. So, just for the hell of it I tried the XFree server. Guess what. It worked perfectly. I did have to copy the timings out of the Accel X configuration files though. So basically I paid $100 (I think) for timings for my display. Here it is a year later and XFree configuation utilities have far surpassed anything that was available for anything a year ago. Larry
