Yes, I configured with sax2. As soon as I exit it and try to start X with the resulting config file, it won't work. I checked with lspci and saw that mine comes back as the equivalent to 0:12:0 which is what my config file says. For what it is worth, when I switch drives and put back my old RedHat 9.0 install, it works fine. Of course the XF86Config file for that system doesn't include the bus line. I will try to reconfig using xf86config when I get home tonight.
