I'm posting this in the slim hopes someone's gotta answer.. After running RH 6.2 changing to mdk 7.1 was the most awsome install of linux I ever had, and I posted it here.. However, 7.2's got a few problems ( and I don't think they are Mandrake problems!!! ).. I was running RH 6.2 and tried RH 7 beta.. For 3 days I tried to get my ( mandrake working ) CL Voodoo Banshee and Maxtech 17" monitor working properly in 1280x1024.. I gave up and dloaded mdk 7.1.. ( I used mdk 5.3 as my FIRST PRODUCTIVE linux distro and kept mdk until the 7.0 horror stories appeared ).. Anyway, RH 7 beta contained the ( at the time brand new Xfree 4.0 server )... I tried for 3 days to get my vid/monitor combo to work.. All with the same result, pix, but a terribly distorted pincushion ( curve )... Now since mdk 7.2 has xfree 4.0 I have the SAME problem ( duh, guess its xfree 4.0?? :) ) So, I think it's an Xfree 4.0/Voodoo Banshee problem and I'm so pissed 'cause KDE 2.0 looks so good and as usual MDK installed flawless.. But in the slim hopes someone ELSE is running a CL Voodoo Banshee and has fixed this, please post and better yet email me!! Since I think I will try to go back to a known good ( Matrox ) tomorrow.. Windows, I don't worry about, everything works ( ha! ), but I run BeOS also ( which I like and Matrox G400's and such are supported ).. Any clues and/or drivers are welcome! Thanks! Alan
