Chris Bennett Radeon DRM...looks like a desktop, so I'm guessing you have a VGA connected LCD monitor. No, HDMI note the amount of guessing I'm doing here. radeondrm runs the video in a graphics mode it didn't used to run in, so you will probably have to re-adjust your monitor. Fill the screen (top might do it sufficiently), and hit the auto adjust button, tweek if needed with the manual adjustments. It is a TV that accepts VGA, HDMI, etc. There are no tweek adjustments. oof. I got one of those, an old Dell thing. Accepts lots of things, does none of them well, it seems. I'm still thinking you have a monitor problem more than a computer problem, though certainly not supposed to happen with DVI. 'course, I've had that discussion with my old Dell thing, and it was wholly unimpressed with my logic. Is your monitor really 1920x1080? that's what radeondrm thinks it is. That's kinda what my bluray player thought of my monitor, come to think of it (it isn't), which is also shifted off to one side, iirc. I only use this console for sysmerge, but that would now be very difficult to use, since I couldn't see the options. Chris ok, sounds like you have painful connectivity and a cranky monitor (or a video combination with a bug), so for the moment, I'd suggest just disabling the radeondrm driver via ukc, and it will revert to the old style text mode, which will probably work Just Fine for you. boot boot -c bla bla bla ukc disable radeondrm *nnn radeondrm disabled ukc quit [happy (hopefully) boot] IF you have another monitor of any kind of any attachment, I'd like to verify your problem persists with it or goes away (without the UKC hack, of course) Nick. This is a common problem, even with DVI. If the monitor and video card/driver/whatever disagree about when the blanking intervals start or end, stuff will be chopped off one side or top/bottom of the display. Usually, with 24x80 text, only one character is chopped off the left side. If the characters are smaller, one can lose so many that the console is useless. Using something other than 24x80 as the default before the system setup is complete is a harmful regression. Geoff Steckel
