Can an Xs3 user help a novice get started.
What is this error:

Fatal server error:
Mode couldn't be resolved: "1024x768"

I have read all relevent man pages, and I don't think there is any
problem with my xconfig file. Here are the relevent sections. Hasty's
man page said the dot clock should be a hex number, but I wasn't sure of
the format. Full config info  available to those who offer help.
