Any pointers on how to investigate the problem? > Its a intel 815e chipset ( standard intel 815 onboard > graphics card) and Knoppix used to run fine. well some of my friends too faced graphics related problems during installation (They didn't get a blank screen, but the picture was heavily distorted/fonts were almost unreadable. Changing driver settings through yast after installation fixed that problem). One friend who faced such problem was using Intel 810 graphics with celeron processor. In your case, by blank screen, what exactly do you mean? Does your monitor go into powersave mode? I've seen this happen when the resolution/refresh rate set by the graphics system isn't supported by the monitor. I think you can change these settings even from text mode using xf86config as root. Just make sure about this from someone more experienced than me! ;-) Me not very sure how to go about it. Tried xf86config once, almost screwed up my configuration! A backup of the X config file saved the day for me! :-O Regards, Kapil -- "The Power to Imagine, is The Power to Create!" -TTux -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/mailing-list/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
