Brand new system:
Tyan Thunder 2 ATX, model s1696dlua with SCSI & sound
Dual Celeron 466, socket type on MSI (Microstar) adapter boards
ATI 2 meg Mach 64 PCI video
Dlink 10/100 PCI and SMC 10 ISA net cards.
SCSI 50-pin bus has CD, Exabyte tape, 1.7 gig hard drive.
IDE has 3.2 hard drive.
It passes POST. BIOS reports correct RAM, two CPUs and all SCSI
devices.
Symptoms:
Dealer assembled it, tried SUSE 6.1 install, & reports video
misbehaviour from SUSE yast utility. Half of screen, randomly top
or bottom, disappears in mid-flight. Changing to another PCI video
card didn't help.
Anyone recognise these symptoms?
I've not tried it myself yet; SCSI disk (4 gig ultra) that I want to
install on arrives tomorrow.
BIOS has quite a few VGA-related options.
I can switch distributions, try installing without yast, or use a mono
hercules-type video card if necessary, but would rather not.
Suggestions?
