Probably something is not well defined for your device or monitor, or you don't have a valid SubSection "Display". Check /var/log/XFree86.0.log to see if your device driver has found any usable video modes. Look for something like: Modeline "1024x768" ... Check your XF86Config file to make sure HorizSync and VertRefresh match your monitor specs. Default values may not. > how do i get the GUI for Xsetup? i tried with xf86configure but it didn't > help and for me to go into the XF86Config file would turn out as a disaster. > > i have a NEC Multisync 70 w/ a NVidia Riva TNT2 card (nv module) runing > Woody. If you have X4.x installed, you could try letting X come up with a configuration file by running "XFree86 -configure" as root. That might give you a working configuration with a ugly display that you can tweak into something more to your liking. If you still can't X working, post your XFXF86Config file and /var/log/XFree86.0.log to the list. -- Jerome -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
