1. edit your desired thin client or hardware type and enter the following additional kernel parameter: vga=normal 2. create a new graphics card device and select "mga (Matrox)" as driver and assign it to your desired thin client or hardware type martin Wim De Geeter schrieb: > Hi Martin, > > This card is inside the client > > *Matrox Graphics, Inc.
