        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW

When attempting to start X, either with startx, or attempting to load gdm, X
fails to load, due to not being able find valid modes, according to the log.

Machine specs are as follows:
Mac Mini G4 1.42Ghz, 512MB RAM
ATI Radeon 9200 with 32MB video RAM.

The mini only has a DVI connector, and is connected via the DVI to VGA adapter
through a KVM.

lspci output:

Will attach xorg.conf, and the xorg log file. Will also follow up to the report
after testing a direct monitor connection to the mini via VGA, and then
directly via DVI.
