I think my monitor is possessed. For some reason Ubuntu 7.04 DOES NOT LIKE MY 17 CTX monitor! I tried setting it up after getting assistance from Mr. O in the re-installation of Ubuntu 7.04, and it pulled the same crap that necessitated the re-install to begin with ( after login, suspension w/out recovery, and blue and white lined static upon manual restart). So I thought maybe it was a conflict of sorts in the hardware set-up (it is afterall a different monitor than was used in both previous installs of 7.04) and attempted to re-install 7.04. Wrong answer! This time the right side of the screen was covered with blinking "failure to suspend" messages after login, followed by a bunch of dialog boxes populating the rest of the monitor. I forgot what they were, but I assume they were a response to my repeatedly closing the "failure to suspend" alerts, but I didn't wait for it to crash my machine before shutting it down.
Any suggestions? Right now that monitor is looking like cannon-fodder, and it would be by now, save for the fact that it works just peachy with fuckin slug-assed 6.06! -E ________________________________________________________________________ AOL now offers free email to everyone.
