Run Xconfigurator, select custom monitor, then 800x600 @60Hz(just off the bottom of the small selection box. Use down cursor), then 800x600 again on color depth/res' page.. Assuming that works, go back thro the same, but when you get to the color depths/resolution page, select higher res'.

Try what I did earlier today. In /usr/X11R6/bin, replace the softlink X - XFree86 with - XFree86_SVGA. Check that the SVGA server exists, and install the rpm if it doesn't. This very simply forces the system to use the 3.3.? server. Shane -Original Message- From: [EMAIL
