Hello, this may be a stupid question, but I am at a loss what to do. I have received a pc with suse linux 9.2, which boots well. After booting, i expect a login screen. However, I get a message from the monitor: Attention cannot display this video mode change computer display input to 1280x1024@60hz. No screen, nothing. What do I do now? Thanks for any help, Ruud
After the machine has booted and you're getting that message from the monitor. try ctrl-alt-F2 or F1,F3,F4,F5... or even ctrl-alt-backspace. The F2 command there should bring you to a login prompt which you can login, run SaX2 to change the properties of your video configuration. The problem sounds like your SuSe config is not setup for your specific monitor. Maybe the resolution is too high or the sync rates do not match. BB
