Hertas, some possible solutions : 1. On most flat panels there is some sort of button allowing you to make the screen "auto-adjust". Don't know about your laptop, though. 2. Did the install process find your screen by itself ?. If yes, is it correct ? - If not, open the Mandrake Control Center, go to "system" and try to scroll down to the "flat panel" section and choose "generic flat panel 1024x768". 4. If you know the correct values for horizontal and vertical refresh rates, become root and edit this file : /etc/X11/XF86Config in the section "screen". Don't choose the exact values, but allow an (conservative) interval. 5. If all this fails, open a console, become root and type : xvidtune. Here, you can play around with the values. However, xvidtune doesn't edit your config, but gives you some values to edit into XF86Config. But use on you own risk. BTW : If you don't have the printed manuals for your screen, most manufacturers supply those on-line. I think Fujitsu-Siemens does.
