Just a guess, but maybe the X server is trying to run at a sync rate that the monitor knows it can't handle, so the monitor shuts itself down to avoid catching fire. Look at the log file to find out what resolution and refresh rate the Xserver is trying to start, and also what resolutions and rates the monitor is capable of. > > Guilhem. > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!
