Hello everyone and a very Happy new year !
I am new to Linux, running a Mandrake v8.1 and have come across an odd problem. The
installation
configuration identifies my Graphics card [an S3 trio] correctly. yet somehow the
monitor which it
selects as default is not the one that is required. and cannot configure the generic
monitors.
consequently i have to work in the text mode. it is pertinent to note here that a
Redhat v7.0
installation failed to recognize the card even. The system config is given below. It
is a HCLBusyBee
2000 running on 266MHz Celeron with 64MB RAM.
Thanking you in advance
Sankarshan
