Graphics card not configured

Managers-
We have just re-installed DU 4.0 on an Alpha 500 with a
Powerstorm 4D60 graphics card. The display worked fine before
re-installation, now at the end of the boot the machine says that
the graphics card is not recognized and the machine stays in
terminal mode. We have installed the proper driver from the open 3D
package and have not changed the physical location of the card.
The system log /var/adm/messages says:
vmunix: no graphics console driver configured
vmunix: generic console support installed using VGA


If we do /sbin/init.d/xlogin at the console, nothing happens.

I've seen this problem reported several times in the archives
but haven't seen any replies. If anyone can tell us how to
configure the card and get xwindows started again, we would
greatly appreciate it.

Thanks much
Raj Suri
