This is the source.
Read it and study it.

I have found that trying too many different
configurations may cause inconsistent results.

Restarting X isn't enough. As much as I hate to say it...a reboot may be required.

Good Luck,

A reboot should not be required unless you have a USB mouse and you don't have USB support in your kernel yet.

i've restarted many times, because i cannot access the internet through linux (Winmodem) and need to switch into Win2k for that.
