I recently installed Red Hat 7.3 on my Vaio notepad. Everything works except for the display, which has the following strange behaviour. If I do startx then I do not get a functioning display and I have tried lots of different settings in Xconfig - none work when I probe. HOWEVER, if I do startx with my laptop plugged into an external monitor AND THEN switch back to the laptop's display then I get a full, high-resolution picture and everything is fine from then on! (But I don't really want to walk round with a 19" CRT monitor).
Does anyone know why I get this strange behaviour and how to fix it? I guess there must be a quick fix since the display works perfectly after I do the switch. The details of the display and the video card are: 1400 x 1050 15" display ATI Rage Mobility M1 8MB graphic card I am using the XFree86 4.2 driver Thanks a lot for any replies, Joshua -- Joshua Knowles IRIDIA, Brussels _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
