Invalid graphic mode?

Hey,
-every now and then when i startup my Suse 9.1 Pro, when i should get the blue suse bootsplash, i get an error stating that it tried to pass an invalid graphic option. Ipress the space barand it continues to load with a black screen with really big text showing the progress of everything loading.. One i get to the login manager, everything is fine. Its not breaking anything, but its annoying.. Anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it?

Thanks,
-myk

Hi, thanks for responding!
Yes, i've run sax2 to configure my X. Everything runs fine when i'm in X, i just get that message on bootup. It doesnt seem to affect anything, its just a real nuisance.

any other ideas?
