I got similar problems setting up Linux on my (2nd) Laptop: This ugly fonts came from the wrong XServer (and maybe) the 'stretch'-funcionallity of my monitor.
I made good experience with: * install XF86Setup (needs VGA16-XServer) * running xviddetect (shows the right XServer, ie SVGA) * running/trying XF86Setup (choosing right resolution and depth) * testing with command 'X' or 'xinit' before 'startx' may help greetings dieter > Is there anything else about LCDs that I could be > missing which would make fonts appear jagged and fuzzy? > -Rick > > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
