It has to be the driver, and in 9.0 I got good results using a generic LCD monitor. That no longer works.
Hi Tim,
Did you try "SaX2 -l" (lower case "L"?) or "SaX2 --lowres"?
No such luck. I had high hopes too, since now that you mention it I used that argument a few years ago on another computer.
The sole difference between 9.0 / 9.1 and this appears to be that earlier there was no driver for HSD150PK12-A monitor, while now sax forces the use of a flawed one, even in lowres mode. I don't know how to find this driver, but if I could find it, would naming it something else or moving it do the trick?
Perhaps: 1) set the framebuffer to a 1024x768 mode. Edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst and change the vga= paramater to: vga=0x317 --> reboot everything is fine now :-) 2) try to use the ati driver but remind that may not work. Just call the following command as root: sax2 -m 0=ati --> configure the resolution -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
