[newbie] Changing monitor

2003-09-26 Thread Anguo
Hello, I currently use an old 14' CRT monitor and I'd like to change to a new 15' or 17' LCD monitor. I can find information on configuration, but what do I do when I want to switch from one monitor to the other? Do I turn off the computer, make the switch and Mandrake will notice the new

Hi, my acer monitor broke down and I replaced it with a viewsonic one. The change was not automaticly detected and mandrake 9.1 still thinks there is an acer. Can I have linux autodetect the monitor just like it does when I do a fresh install. Or can I manually set what monitor is used?

When I installed linux-mandrake 6.1 it asked me what the settings were for the monitor. At the time I didn't know. However, now I do know and would like to change it. How do I do this? Do I go into XConfigurator and if so how do I do it? Second, do I install my video card driver? I am very new

in console, so you are not using the X envirnoment. It might be best to tell us what monitor you are using and what video card for more specifics.
