rh 8 installation

Check ur monitor settings (it shud be available with the manual) for the vertical and horiz sync. frequencies. Give those values when probed for the monitor settings. ( I am not familiar with RH8 instrallation - most probably u will have a "custom monitor" menu where u can enter these two values).

cheers

You'll have to do a 'text install' with RedHat on nVidia GeForce card systems.

It's not that different from the graphical installer though.

Red Hat 9 onwards will install on your system

The problem lies with XFree86 and not with RedHat. Your display card is supported only in the newer versions of Linux
