First configure the size and colour depth of your frame buffer, from the HP's boot menu, then write number those down. Boot Debian. Once you're on console, configure X to use the frame buffer device, at the EXACT SAME screen size and colour depths. Remember to also match your monitor settings to those. -- Martin-�ric Racine, Espoo, Finland. http://www.pp.fishpool.fi/~q-funk/ +358 41 474 0289 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
