Hello list, I've just managed to install the kernel (2.4) on my system. I had to use the boot option vga=0x305 to get my display right. But after the initial reboot I didn't get an option to set this again and the display didn't come right by itself.
What I get is the display starting about 3 or 4 cm (1 inch or so) down the screen and continuing to bottom where it gets cut off. The last few lines of the display are squashed at a different size at the very top of the screen. (Also, a few lines inbetween where the display stops at the bottom and starts at the top seem to be missing). I eventualy forced it to restart when it was trying to set up exim, because I couldn't see all the options properly! When I rebooted tried entering some boot options at LILO: 'Linux vga=0x305' didn't work as it said it only accepted 'normal', 'extended' or 'ask'. So I tried 'vga=ask' and proceeded to try all the possible resolutions one after another but none of them worked; I just got extactly the same problem. If anyone has any ideas I'd very grateful to hear them! Cheers! --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
