[XFree86] X-Server with GF4 and LCD

[Michael Galicki]

hi,   I have a problem with mandrake 9.2. My system: Athlom XP 1800+ ECS k7vta3 MSI Geforce 4 ti 4200 LG 1710B DVI   During the installation I was prompted to chose my gfx and my monitor (both were already selected). before accepting the settings you can test them, well I did but it didnt work, afterwards I tried all kinds of settings for my gfx and my monitor, none of them worked. finally I just finished the whole installation and restartet where I was bootet to the console. trying to start the xserver with startx gave me an error message: ... using vt7 (EE) VGA (0): Driver can't support depth 24 (EE) screen(s) found, but none have a usuable configuration   FATAL SERVER ERROR no screens found ...   does someone know a solution for my problem? Im very new to linux...   I also tried setting the horizontal/vertical frq manually during the installation. While trying to install red hat linux I and fedora and didnt make it to the graphic setup screen, after probing some hardware the monitor turned off -> standby mode.
