Subject: [newbie] Dispay completely broken
After a power failure, and the fsck on reboot, I no longer have any display.
The screen flashes a few lines of snow every few seconds.
It doesn't respond to ctrl+alt+backspace and will not switch terminals.
Its not hardware because the display is fine up to the point where X starts.
Other than that it seems to be functioning well. I still have network
connection to my windows machine, shared modem with forwarding, can telnet
into it, etc.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a fix?
This is Mandrake 6.0.
Thanks,
Gene
