Thanks, it worked. Now I have "yukonx0" up and running.

So moving on to the next problem. Could someone give me any advise on
where do I start to configure my screen? I have currently disabled
"dtlogin" because Xsun doesn't seem to work right on this laptop.

I have ATI Mobility Radeon X700 (128MB) and a 17" screen with
1680x1050.

When I'm running "dtlogin", the screen becomes black and nothing
happens.

How do I configure my video settings? I would also like to switch to
Xorg if possible.
