X hates me after hardware upgrade
Clue required, please. I've never had XF86 give me an error like this one.
I just completed transferring my existing hardware to a new case/motherboard.
If it matters, I went from a P90 to a dual P133. I moved over the disks, RAM
and boards - everything but the P90 motherboard.
Everything works fine after the move, except X - errors and my XF86config are
attached. Prior to moving my hardware into the new case, I pulled out a spare
SCSI controller and disk and did a fresh install of Hamm onto the new
machine. I got X working using my main monitor (the XE17 referenced in the
config) and a spare #9 Motion 771 I had lying around. I had the new machine
running fine like that for a week and then I moved the hardware. After the
move, I deleted the device section for the 771, copied over (from memory, I
admit) the XE17's monitor section and made the appropriate changes to the
screen section of the XF86config. In addition, I'd had the STB Nitro working
(and very well at that) in the P90 for several months prior to the hardware
move using the Dell VS17 referenced in the config. So, I've had both the XE17
and the Nitro working, but never both together.
