Title: Titanium Video broken in Mandrake 8.2

boot from the CD.. at the prompt...type in "rescue" (without the inverted commas.)

 

then when its finished booting type:

chroot /mnt

 

there you go, booted to console in your linux install.

 

then type "drakxconf" at the prompt. (again without the inverted commas.)

 

change the default run level to 3.

 

that will boot linux without the GUI and you can then reboot without the CD and play with your X11 settings to your hearts content.

What config did you use.

 

How do I stop xwindows from starting (or at least escape out of it) and

setup a different configuration?

Hi,

 

I just installed Mandrake 8.2 in my laptop. I'm a new user of linux

and I'm not sure if I can help you. I have also an ATI Mobility Radeon

card and when I installed by default Mandrake 8.2, the Xconf didn't

 work. I searched by myself another conf. till I found the correct.

The video mode is whacked.  I tried GUI installs. NOT!!!
I tried text install and then 1024x768 mode, NOT!!!!

It's seems that the ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 has problems. :-(

No Linux for me.
