Hi All, I tried to follow the PCQ mag of march 2000, For display and firstly tried to configure the lilo file as said in the mag they said to add the file vga=771 before the first image statement(it didnt work)and after 1/2 an hrs work I added vga=771 to the lilo.conf file after the first image statement and then it worked then i tried to work on the XF86Config file and tried to change svga to fbdev but after editing it i found out it didnt work and also realised i had made a foolish mistake by not taking a backup of the file.Will a file of a different linux system with a diff configuration work on my system if i replace the XF86Config file. If it does will u plz send me the file edited to work with fbdev i tried my best but no luck!!!! PS:It is said that i would have to run a certain command to make X to take fbdev and not svga as display in which promt should i type this in tried but it gave me an error.Now when i start Xwindows the screen goes blank and it keeps flikering and the i press ctrl+alt+(backspace) to return to the normal mode. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
