Hello All,
Recently I have re-installed Linux Mandrake 7.2 with an option to start-up GUI
after boot. I have defined Gnome as WM and screen resolution 1280x1024 with 16
bit colours (vga mode for lilo 794). However the installation type was "user"
(not expert which I used to use before) and therefore my default boot manager is
Grub. During the process of the Mandrake installation I tested the X and it was
fine. However when I boot, Aurora boot works fine till it starts to launch WM,
screen becomes black. I cannot not switch to text console either. The only
remedy at this point is hardware reboot which file system (ext2) dos not like
very much ;-).
I booted my Mandrake from an installation CD in recovery mode in order to view
some X files or Grub files but apparently I did not find anything to change.
Any help appreciated.
Regards,
Darek
