I've already complained about this, and I will once more. I have repeatedly encountered difficulties installing SuSE 9.3 and 10 on a system with a TFT screen (Sony and Samsung, so I think might/will happen with most TFT's). You get that vga out or range error message which makes it impossible for a newcomer to install SuSe without tinkering with parameters such as vga=[insert your valie here]. I continue to think that this is unacceptable for a linux distribution you pay good money for, and please don't come up with silly arguments like: this si the essence of linux, you've got to be ready to invest browsing docs, and the like. A friend of mine has just come over with her computer, running SuSe 9.2, and a serious problem: The system won't boot, and complains about reiserfs corruption. After trying all kinds of variations on reiserfschk, she tried --rebuild-tree, without having made a backup of her files (she's a journalist, so it's pretty important). Reiserfschk completed, but the machine still won't boot, so she brought it to me. I tried to boot after connecting a keyboard and a mouse and a Sony TFT screen, and yes, I got the dreaded vga out of range message. I tried boot options vga=vesa, vga=792, vga=791 and many more, to no avail. Esc twice booted in text mode, and I could see where the reiserfschk fails. I then tried to rescue her data using a Knoppix 3.4 in German I had from some time ago, and hey presto, it booted straight into kde, without any silly vga out of range error messages, and I was connected to the internet and could browse her reiserfs partition and burn a dvd with her data without intervening at any moment. If Knoppix can do it, why can't SuSE? FX
