Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I have CentOS5 installed with a Geforce 9800GT GPU. After installing the driver of GPU, I returned to GUI mode and alwayas the monitor goes blank saying change to otimized mode 1366x768 with 60 Hz.
The same result returns with system-config-display, init 5,startx ,nvidia-setting . Now I have uninstalled the GPU driver and using 640x480 screen which is by default with big font all big.

How will I resolve this issue ?
You go and set the screen resolution up to be whatever you want. The nVidia driver will pick the best resolution for your monitor...if you want 640x480, then run the configuration utility (or manually edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file), to set that resolution.
And don't double-post the same question in multiple forums.
