I tried to help a mate install Caldera Linux 2.2 on the
second HDD in his new HP Prolinea Desktop. The setup went
fine until near the end. We entered the correct specs for
the inbuilt video card (which was detected and is supported)
and the monitor. The screen then displayed a set of
horizontal bands of white and, although the system did not
seem to be locked up, we could not get back to a text
terminal. I tried running through the usual steps I use with
SuSE if this happens to no avail. I have advised him that we
are having an install fest soon and he will be attending if
possible, but for the time being, does anyone have any
ideas?

Stay well and happy
Heracles

PS. I had a feeling that the video card may have been
misread by the installation, but the docs suggest not.
