VGA mode not supported after install
i am a first timer using linux...just installed mandrake 10.0 and after install i reboot and get boot choices (linux, failsafe, 276-?, etc) i chose "linux" and recieve a "vga mode not supported" message. i can chose the other boot options to use the command line interface but since i'm a new user i obviously need the gui associated with the "linux" option. can someone please help or give some advice on how to fix the problem? probably fairly simple just i don't know.

Hi sblair_32, welcome to lq. Could you please provide some more details, e.g. your motherboard, video card, monitor model, etc?
good luck. |
motherboard is a pcchips game demonio m947 series with onboard xabre video which supports vesa standards. i am using a mag innovision 15" lcd monitor (model no. 568). hope this information gives you a better idea

You might use this guide and choose generic vesa compatible as your driver.
