Paul, Is there a way to look at that file by interrupting the boot process? When the machine boots, the screen goes blank and I can't get to a point where I see anything.
Thanks for helping! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Barclay Sent: Sunday, June 01, 2003 7:14 AM To: Red Hat List Subject: Re: Video Card problem I too had a problem with the video once I installed Redhat 9.0 What I found was the screen relsolution had been set to an invalid value for my card. Check /etc/X11/XF86config and look near the bottom of the file for the "screen" section.
