The problem described by pipergeek and ke4nt1 appears similar to the problem I am having with an old Dell Latitude LM P133 (40 Meg ram, Neomagic NM2070 video chip, 800x600 with 256 colors). pipergeek said "don't bother with Feather Linux", but in fact I found that the X server Xfbdev works with my old laptop when I use Feather Linux. At the boot prompt (I boot with the floppy), I enter "knoppix lang=us vga=771", and during the X configuration, I select Xfbdev. As I mentioned in a different thread, I haven't been able to get X working in DSL, even when booting with the fb800x600 option.
ke4nt1, you might try Feather Linux to see if X works.
