Hi luggers,
I installed linux on my machine with configuration AMD Athlon
3800+ 128 bit processor with Asus MotherBoard which has 1GB RAM and 160 GB HDD.
My monitor is 17'' TFT monitor of AOC Company. The installation went on
smoothly and after rebooting just when the splash screen comes before asking
for login monitor started flickering and continued on and on. I tried changing
various resolutions and Refresh rates but no effect. After installing I tried
changing the monitor with a normal CRT monitor but it was of no use.This is not
the case with one flavor. I installed around 5 different flavors like Fedora 8,
Open SUSE 10.2, Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop, Ubuntu, Cent OS 5.
But Fedora 7 and Debain 4.0 went on well but I couldn't configure
the printer and network connection which are of utmost importance. My printer
is a HP LaserJet 1018 DN black and white printer ( Connected through USB).
These OS's detected the printer but its not printing. When I checked the print
queue it said job stopped. Do I need to do any configuration if my printer is
connected through USB? The problem with network is : I have configured entire
IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DNS servers too correctly (worked very
well in Windows) but I am unable to browse. I couldn't even ping to my default
gateway. But when I did ifconfig it showed every thing correctly.
I'll be relieved if someone can help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance,
Venu.
