/var/log/messages didnt have anything related to monitor or Silicon Lynx.
Standard errors from startx were redirected to a file and is attached with
this message. The screen blacks out after 'Initializing system' and while
'Initializing peripherals', afterwards it seems to continue initializing
sound card (startup audio is heard), etc.
Any other error catching logging suggestions ?
Also I had X running via startx previously, but due to a mishap, entire hard
disk was wiped out and the trouble is after reinstall which is thru a RH
boxed set.
thanks
sriram

goes blank. ctrl-alt-+ OR ctrl-alt-minus OR ctrl-alt-backspace do not seem
to have any effect and I have to reboot. Doesnt even go back to text mode
