Hi All,

Using Mandrake 8.1  Sorry for the long post

I just replaced my CMOS battery and, as expected, received a CMOS error
message.  Pressed enter to return to CMOS default.

Since I had to remove my video and sound cards to replace the battery I
thought that I would upgrade my video card at the same time.

Replaced my Matrox Mystique video card with a Radeon 7000 PCI card.  Upon
boot up, I noticed that the checking for new hardware flashed an error
message but I could not read it.  Then, after the computer finished booting
up, the monitor started flashing just before the GUI to enter in the user
and password.

I then receive dthe following message:

mandrake linux release 8.1 (vitamin) for i586
kernel 2.4.8-26mdk on an i586 / TTY1
INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast: = disabled for five minutes.

Then the screen started flashing again

Can anyone please tell me what caused this?

TIA

Frank McKenna
