XF86Config help.
Hi, Im trying to set my monitor to a 1024x768 resolution so at you can see from the XF86Config file bellow I commented everything that is related to either 640x480 or 800x600. Trying to run the X server I receive an error which states that there is no 1024x768 mode so the X server cant load. When I uncomment the 640x480 lines X runs perfectly ! What am I doing wrong?

You can do it with the filesystem mounted read-only. In your boot prompt
(lilo?) give a parameter '-b' (or better, 'boot=/bin/sh' - I don't know
what Mandrake does with '-b'), make sure the fs is mounted read-only
(I personally do it with ':tt' and expect an error message) and
run whatever you want (defrag, debugfs, fsck, ...).
Much easier than finding a floppy with no bad blocks :-)
You do not have to boot in order to mount RO. You can remount.
mount -o remount,ro /dev/{mountedDisk} /Your/Mount/Locatoin

Re: /tmp/xerrors
Geoff: I am in the US, so it is still not yet Shabbat (it is Friday morning here in NYC). I know I probably won't hear from you until Sunday. Out of all the good advice I have gotten from you all, I finally took yours, which was the simplest. I modified XF86Config in the following way: You can try the following, it may be enough: Edit "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config" Look for the line without a # in front of it: HorizSync .. Change it to: HorizSync 27-95 I changed it to the specs for my monitor, 30 - 70 Then look for (without a #) : VertRefresh . Change it to: VertRefresh 50-160 I changed it to 50 - 120 Now, look for the Modes line in the section "Screen". There may be several and it may take some time to figure out which one is being used. It depends upon your Xserver. You will see something like: Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" change it to include the modes that you want, I use: Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" I changed it to Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" X started just fine. Thank you. Other problems: 1) Even though I made these changes and I am no longer stuck with "640x480" I can't use CTRL-ALT-plus/minus to toggle between modes. Do you or anyone else know what could be the problem? 2) Oded Arbel suggested using XF86Setup to modify the XF86Config file. (BTW, Oded: I used "find / -name "filename" -print with "-print" because the first place that I learned about that command used that switch and I figured I needed to use that when I did that command. Now that you asked me about it I saw that I didn't need to use it. Thanks. Also, in answer to your question, my version of XFree86 is 3.3.3.1-49 I found the XF86Setup rpm on my CD-ROM and installed it. I also downloaded XVG16.tgz. In fact, I downloaded two copies from ftp.xfree86.org. One was in the directory ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/current/binaries/Linux-ix86-libc5/Servers and the other was in the directory ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/current/binaries/Linux-ix86-glibc/Servers. They are of different sizes. Which one should I install, and where should I install it? I tried running XF86Setup without installing this and got the following message: "Not all of the X Keyboard extension programs and configuration files are installed. The file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/compiled/README is missing." What can I do to fix this? Is it just a simple matter of installing that XVG16.tgz? 3) While we are at it, I thought I might ask about an old problem. I can use Shift-PageUp to scroll up. But once I go into either KDE or Gnome and exit back to the command prompt, I can't use this to scroll up beyond the point where I exited from KDE or Gnome. Any thoughts on this?

You can't scroll back even if you move between text-mode virtual consoles. If you really need such functionality, you try to use screen, available from your distribution CD (or site), or from your favourite GNU archive. I used it a lot in the past, and it works fine.

From a HOWTO I see that XVG16.tgz is called a VGA16 server. I also found that on the CD-ROM for RedHat 6.0 that there is an RPM package, "XFree86-VGA16-3.3.3.1-49.i386.rpm". Is this what I am looking for? If so, it is already installed. And if so, the problem remains that missing README file.

You can get the magic sysrq prompt by hitting M-SysRq (on my kb it is located on PrintScrn key). It seems like you (someone) hit M-SysRq-S. This does something like L1-A ; sync on suns - writes kernel image (core) on disk, and virtually halts the kernel (on sun it will continue to firmaware state. PC do not have this state, so the hack can not be perfect). I have no idea why this could happen, but this is the output of the process described above. If you are concened that somebody can gain access to a server and intentionaly crash it, you can disable the option in kernel configuration.
