Same problem with me. But I solved the probl;em by
setting the monitor with extended VGA 800x600 at 60 Hz and 600x480 at 72 Hz let
it works first, then you can cahnge it later on by using the DrakConf. Try it
and let's see..okay ?
I'm a newbie too by the way.

Subject: [newbie] Compaq Laptop
display
Hello,
I am reasonably new to Linux and I am having
problems with the install. All seems to be well until I try and find a monitor
in the last step.
My machine is a Compaq Presario 1200xl109 Laptop
and the documentation I got with it isn't very comprehensive. I have
found that the driver is for a 'Trident CyberBlade i7 (47)' which is listed in
the first part of the setup but then I cannot choose the correct monitor for
the install to complete.
I have tried all the Compaq ones to no avail and
I really would like to use the GUI in Linux-Mandrake.
Hope you can be of help.
