Hi rick, thanks for the response however I attempted a few different kernel-boot options as I'm not entirely sure what my monitor rate or bit depth is, however none worked. I'm running a Twin Turbo graphics card hooked up to a PC 15inch ADI micro scan monitor. Any more help would be great. This is about the fourth time posting to this list but you are the first to respond. Thanks.

For example, I have a beige G3 minitower with an "ATI Mach64" video card with a 14-inch monitor. I use video=atyfb:vmode:13,cmode:16 which sets color-depth to 16-bits, and video mode to 832 x 624 @ 75 Hz. What kind of video card does your S900 have? Enjoy!
