Well, that doesn't sound like the kernel problem at all.  Try installing 
with XFree 3.3.6 or just running XFdrake and choosing a slight back off 
on your monitor  (like "Monitor than can do 1024x768 at 60 Hz")  See 
what happens then.

Do you know what makes this happen? Somewhere I find out more?

I swear it's the most bizarre thing. And it's incredibly irritating. The mb is
a Micronics based on the Intel 440-LX chipset with a Pentium-II 233, two IDE
drives, and an STB Velocity 128 in the AGP. Sounds simple enough, doesn't it?

If it is an on-board ProSavage, it is a known kernel problem with that 
particular chipset and the current 8.2 kernel.  Look for an update shortly.

[expert] screen jiggles w/disk access (seriously!)

2002-03-30 Thread Jeremy Mereness


I have a system where the screen jiggles and shakes, apparently when the
disk is being accessed. It occurs in frame-buffer and X but not in
straight VGA text.

The weird part: it does NOT occur if I boot the same PC into Windows.
