Reboot into single user mode and use Xconfigurator to set up your X settings. You can get into single user mode by starting up with 'linux 1' at the LILO BOOT: prompt. The other option is 'linux 3' which will not attempt to start X up. Steve Flynn IBM MVS Operations Analyst "C.

Hello, have just installed Mandrake 6.1, and need help with a
flashing screen. The X program is automatic, but there is only text on screen
immediately following the login page with Penguin graphic. The page continually
flashes, seems the monitor/video settings are wrong, so need to reconfigure.
This is not possible as the screen is not stable, continually going on and off,
so need to make the screen stable again to reconfigure. Is there any solution
that does not involve reinstall? Is there any solution?
HELP!
