Another request for X Files

I guess that no one has X running on their ANS.

Has everyone run into the no valid modes issue? If anyone can get X
to boot, send us (all) a copy of the XF86Config and fb.modes files
(my guess is that the fix resides in one of those two places).

For anyone not experiencing the problem, X tries to load, but can't.
When you check the log, it seems that X first throws out all the
refresh rates that the monitor can't run, then invalidates all the
other modes. Something with frame-buffer video, perhaps? Something
with the video support in the ans kernel? AIX was able to support
1024x768 @ 72 Hz very nicely. The VRAM is 1MB. We should be able to
get something...

Thanks,
Steve Leventhal
