I am assuming when you see that message you are not given a command prompt?
So long since I have experienced that, I am guessing you have the frequency set to high for your monitor to handle. I am not familiar with Suse, but to blindly try to fix it: When at your boot selector, choose "failsafe" not "Suse", what you want is to boot to a command prompt. Then do this at the command prompt: (su is superuser, so the password to give is root password) Code:
[don@localhost ~]$su after you are done and changes saved, use the command "halt" (without the quotation marks). Your machine will shut down, and you should be able to boot to a gui. If it boots to comand prompt instead of gui or the out of range message, login as regular user and use "startx" command (without the quotation marks). Suse may have there own graphic utility, but this one is common to all linux distros. |
