Dear Sir/ Madam,
I have the UK
version of Linux-Madrake 6.5 and am trying to install this on my computer.
However my graphics card and monitor is not supported so I have to configure it
myself.
I have a
Creative Labs GeForce 256 Annihilator PRO grpahics card and a Belinea SVGA
non-interlaced 1024x768 monitor. I will input this data along with the amount of
memory the card has, the frequencey sync ranges of the monitor etc into the X
configurator. But, when I type the command startx into the 'DOS' part of linux
where i log in, it will either say that there is a device but no monitor can be
found. After a lot of playing about with teh settings, I can load linux, but it
is as if the screen has zoomed in and so three icons can fill up the whole
screen and windows can not be seen. I have treid using different resolutions but
nothing is happening.
Can you tell me what to do to
solve this problem.
Thanks in advance
Sebastian
