Re: [newbie] Display in LM8

2001-07-03 Thread Marcia Waller

Dear Don & All, Yes, my settings are at 600x400 and I cannot find a way to 
change them. There was no other choice offered in Mandrake Control Center.I 
did it in 7.2 but cannot find out how to do it on this distribution. How may 
I do that? Also, is XF86Setup on this distro? I cannot get it from the 
terminal. Thank you for your help. Sincerely, Marcia

Marcia,
  Have you looked at the Configuration --> Other -->
Mandrake Control Panel and in there you can look at
what the settinfgs are for the display.. From what you
have said it appears that you display is set to
600x400 and that display is hard to see like you say. 
Try 800x600 and see if that works better.

[newbie] Display in LM8

2001-07-02 Thread Marcia Waller

Dear All, Since I have had LM8 I cannot get my display to the correct config. 
Alot of my programs are cut off at the bottom so that I cannot see the OK , 
Apply, or Cancel buttons. I have a generic S3Virge which worked perfectly in 
7 and 7.2. How may I remedy this problem? I already did a new config file 
with xf86config. That did not seem to change anything. Any help will be 
greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Marcia
