Hi, I'm having a problem turning on the CRT display using a Dell Latitude 840, Geforce 4 (NV17 [GeForce4 440 Go] (rev a3)), Debian/sid kernel 2.4.19, latest nvidia drivers, xfree86-4.2.1-3
It works fine when in text mode (e.g. on bootup), but stops working (black screen, not even glowing) when starting an x-server. I've tried different resolutions, some of which I know have worked on the CRT-monitor before. Also, when I switch back to text mode (by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1), the CRT works fine but the laptop's LCD seems to have lost the sync or something, it flickers. When pressing the CRT/LCD-button (Fn+F8) (cycling through), it recovers. I've tried modifying the XF86Config-4 file by adding an additional screen section, without luck (the screen seems to get registered (ie. appears in /var/log/XFree86.0.log), but it has no effect). Any help would be appreciated /Nicolas _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
