Hi, hopefully this is the right place to be posting this.
I have a Powerbook G3/500 (Pismo) with a dead LCD display and an external CRT attached to it. I can get a nice console up on the CRT by passing 'video=ofonly' to the boot (or in lilo.conf), but am unable to get X to run.
I had problems with X on my PowerMac 7500. No matter what I tried, I have to use Sax2's default suggestion. Have you tried that? Also, are you sure you are in the right "Init?". Try "init 5" at the command line. That will change it to an XDM/KDM/GDM login. Good Luck. __________________________________________________________________ Switch to Netscape Internet Service.
