I'm totally new to Linux, but I've managed to get Red Hat Linux 7.2 distribution installed on my laptop. Unfortunately, the GUI is totally toast. All I get is some flickering vertical lines.
This machine is a Dell Inspiron 8100. The video driver 'card' is an NVIDIA GeForce2 Go, 16MB, with a flat panel display that's supposed to work at 1600x1200 dpi, 32-bit color. Anyone have a similar machine working that can tell me what driver to use and how to configure it? I think the XFree86 version with my Linux 7.2 distribution is 4.0.3, so I'm thinking I should upgrade to 4.2.0, but I see that the man page specifically says that while GeForce2 is supported, GeForce2 Go is not supported.
