Thanks. When I reinstalled Aurora it automatically put in the correct? monitor rpm.
It fails to put an
initscipt in rc.d, which is "obviously" the problem. I have played with the
framebuffer kernel and
added 0x317 to lilo.conf to give me 16bit colour on boot and then the screen is blank
throughout the
boot process - presumably because Aurora is not running. Would you be so kind as to
send me a copy of
/etc/rc.d/init.d/aurora if you have it? I am not inclined to reinstall and ruin my
config in the
hope that fixes it. Thanks.
