To use XFree86 you have to do 4 things:

1. load the XFree86.dsl or unc extension
2. Replace the existing xserverrc file with one pointing to XFree86
3. Put an appropriate XF86Config-4 file in /etc/X11/
4. Start or re-start X

To find a suitable XF86Config-4 file for your graphics card/mouse, I would suggest you search using Google on XF86Config-4 and the name of your graphics card - good luck

Thanks, I will try it. XF86Config-4 is just a text -file?

I found one config -file. By the way, am I able to try this with live CD? Netcard is not working after installation, netcardconfig says no supported cards found. My netcard is Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast. What could be the problem?

It doesn't work. I replaced xserverrc with XFree86 -xserverrc but everytime when I restart x, original comes back. And I don't have folder "X11R6". I put the config file in /etc/X11, but nothing happened. :angry:

I think we can forget this... I think I will start using Ubuntu again.
