Hello everyone

I havent been active on this list for over a year, but recently
purchaced Suse 6.4 and installed on a laptop.

Here's the specs
HP Pavillion N3310 500mhtz amd k6 dual boot with w98. Trident
Cyberblade video chip uses 8 meg "shared" memory
I does 800x600 nicely in 98... but for the life of me I cant get it to
work on Suse.

Ive tried
Sax - The resolution is *gigantic* so large I cant even exit ;-)
xf86config - Tries all combonations of settings I get the same giagantic
screen
xf86graphic mode - Tried all setting combinations... same thing

Ive installed all the approaite servers (I think)Ive got about 6
installed
Apparently when I installed I missed the "monitor detection"

Any ideas? I really have to get an 800x600 going

btw. Suse has done a fabulous job with their new distro. Very
impressive, I was happy to spend the $50 for it (got it at borders
books)

hope someone can help get me going
thanks
rob
