what kind of video card(brand) and what chipset is on the card? and how
much memory is on the card? some cards simply do not work well in X.
when using linux i stick to only a few cards:
voodoo3 series
Matrox G200/G400 series
Nvidia TNT/TNT2 series
for best compadiblity and easiest installation.
I installed the latest Storm version of Debian, and one nice thing is that
it has such easy setup.

name, but with anything bigger than 600x400 is just gibberish. Windows
liked it all fine at 800x600, and I think even
2 matches
