Help!
I recently purchased a 20" Dell Flat Panel [DELL-2001FP] and found during the installation that SuSE Linux 9.0 did not have the drivers preinstalled. I searched the quite a few linux sites and the web in general with no luck. Even the Dell's website couldn't help me. Does anyone have any idea what I can do?
Thanks in advance,
Stanley
Good day Stanley, if this is a monitor connected to an ordinary analogue video port, it should be simple. YaST -> Equipment -> Graphics and Monitor Change... Desktop -> Monitor -> Change Configuration Properties... Here you select in the left column "--> LCD" and in the right the resolution and frequency that your monitor's documentation says it can do. In the tab Frequencies you fine tune the frequency ranges that the monitor's documentation says it can do. I think at some point the SaX2 program starts, allowing you to fine tune even more -- image size and placement on the screen. Tune as well as you can. Log out and in again (to restart the graphics system in order for the changes to take effect. Finally do the final fine tuning with the buttons on your monitor. There is no specific driver for my panel either, but the above does the trick for me. Best regards :o) Johnny :o)
