Hello, I installed Suse 10.2 on an IBM Netvista (from 2003) with onBoard graphics. I have a 1280x1024 Monitor, but Suse only boots in text mode (it starts init 5, but that doesn't work then, I just get the text prompt).
Typing "init 5" does nothing (prompt appears again, it seems it is in "5" but shows only text-mode). "init 3" shuts down kdm services etc., then "init 5" says "run level 5 has been reached" - but no graphics... Typing "startx" gives ... (EE) No Video BIOS modes for chosen depth. (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. Fatal server error: no screens found. XIO: fatal IO error 104 (connection reset by peer) on X Server ":0.0" after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining. I cannot start Sax2. I cannot use the Monitor section of Yast (it doesn't do anything). I cannot boot "failsave" to graphics mode. I tried to play around with different BIOS video settings (there's not much to change), but no difference so far... I cannot iterpret what Sax.log wants to tell me - more than 1000 lines that are just cryptic to me... I've put the log here: http://www.daniel-bauer.com/test/SaX.log What must I do to get it running? How can I change the settings, when neither Sax nor Yast/Monitor nor boot option vga=normal works? Can you help me? If you need further infos, please tell me... thanks Daniel -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Switzerland professional photography: http://www.daniel-bauer.com Madagascar special: http://www.sanic.ch -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
