Can't run the LIVE cs right

EAD · 03-11-2006, 03:20 AM

Hii, when loading the Live CD, after the inital start when the graphic screen should load I get a "blue screen of death", I do have access to other Konsol in text mode, but can't get the X start right.
I have nvidia and AMD, How do I make it work?

normally U need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf as follows:

Code:

sarge:~# nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Generic Graphics Controller"
        Driver          "vesa"
EndSection

this will let u have a gui env to have ease.nividia and all requires propreitory drivers which their resp. site
contains.if U install and uses Ubuntu it makes sense that u get those drivers.but 4 ur livesession try vesa.
if u r couragious enough try configuring by answering to the prompts in:

Code:

sarge:~# dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

try autodetect in most options if possible!.SO Best of LUX
