I am using RedHat Linux #9 with an Asus P4P800 i865 800FSB and NVIDIA GEFORCE-FX 128MB card and ViewSonic E90fb monitor. All is well during install in text mode including opening page and non-text buttons and all is well operating in text mode but monitor blacks out when I try to 'startx' and view meter screen shows small vertical and horiz numbers and 'status' OVER message. (I have not yet determined what a viewmeter does or is trying to tell me and I have no idea of how to access the interactive 'viewmatch' within the viwsonic monitio system. I can't adjust settings through 'Xconfigurator' as the screen goes black. Though I chose the correct monitor and NVIDIA GEFORCE-FX (generic) settings in original install the XF86Configuration file does not reflect those choices. I have not yet tried to change the file settings with vi - is this my next step? Anyone got any ideas? I am not a total newbie as I have been working for over a year on various Beowulf system setups with Linux. But, I am not a programmer or sys mgr yet - (still in the role of sorcerer's apprentice at this time) My 'day job' is 5th grade teacher. Any help or directions towards help will be very much appreciated - thanks
