Question SuSE 9 : unable to get my monitor works


Hi all,

I've got SuSE 9 and want to set up my monitor on it.

I have a SCEPTRE D50X 15 inch and the companie doesn't provides linux driver.
I was on RedHat 9 and had the same problem. With this distribution, I use the 'Generic svga' driver that comes with it.

But, in SuSE 9, I don't see a generic driver.

How can I solve this problem ???

Thanks a lot,

Nic

In Yast, there is a generic Vesa Monitor you can select. My Proview isn't listed, so I choose Vesa and 1024x768 at 85Hz (as my monitor booklet states) and that runs perfectly.
