- change to console (Ctrl+Alt+F1),
- login as root
- type 'init 3' (changes the runlevel to non-graphical mode)
- type 'sax2' (this will start graphics configuration)
- enter the correct settings, save and exit
- type 'init 5' to get back to graphical mode and see if it works.
If it doesn't, you may need to install the NVIDIA driver via YaST Online Update (YOU).
No its not the monitor, the dell TFT works fine in Windows XP. I have pictures on my digital camera which I can send via email, also tried sax2 the display was corrupted in that as well, it detected my hardware fine but it was using the VESA 1024x768 24depth driver.. how can i change this when even that displays corrupted?
I may be wrong on this but if sax selected VESA 1024x768 I believe it knows a monitor is there but doesn't recognize what it is. It may even have your monitor in its list so you need to select it for sax.
so here is the thing, SuSe is pissing me off man why is it Knoppix 3.9 runs fine, everything works, yet SuSe is there a manual way of doing this like editing some thing?
I tried formatting my drive and reinstalling it only to get the same problem help!!!
