Hello everybody! I am rather new to Linux and started now with the Suse 7.3 Professional trying to run it on a Gericom Webboy Laptop with this "troublemaking" SIS 630 Chipset. I have several difficulties but will pose them under different subjects. First my "most" important one. When I turn of my Laptop the screen still shows part of the last "picture" that then slowly (about 1 or 2 seconds) disappears. During the installprocess I have choosen not to configure X11 and used Sax2 from the textconsole, as suggested in the Webboy install how-to from Suse support database. ( think he uses the framebufferdevice - but not shure about that, could read something like fbdev or so several times) Is this behavior normal or is it proplematic? Under Windows the screen doesn't shows this behavior. If it is something to care about - what should I do? Any comments are welcome and if you need further infos, please let me know. Thank you all for your help Andreas Bauer -- They told me to use Windows 98 or better. So I choose Linux.
