Question

ON a complete fresh install with no changes to the config of Mandrake and the correct monitor, screen resolution, frequencies (vertical range and horizontal) and graphics card chosen, is X running ok before ANY driver or software installations?

Yes it's a fresh install, but i got news i just fix that creapy problem , there was something bad with dga modes the only thing that i do to fix it wass uncoment one line on xorg.conf i do not remember wich one at the moment i'll post it when i return home ok?.

by the way with mandrake 10.1 i also have another problems , my paralel port wasn't detected at al so to fix this just use modprobe lp as root and thats all.
