Well this kinda worked. I still cant see anything untill SuSE starts booting, i cant choose the OS i wanna boot since i cant see the menu i can only guess when to press down but at least i see suse booting bfore it shows the login screen. Also i still cant get into bios :( but its a start. Do you thing acpi has anything to do with it? Cause mine is switched off, i thought that was the reason i had problems with my old screen so i installed with acpi=off. Thanx On Monday 06 June 2005 21:46, FX Fraipont wrote:

Hi No i dont have a TFT screen i got a 19" Dell M993c and a HIS radeon 9800pro G-Card. What are the chances i can do the same thing you and sorting the problem out? Thx for the interest in my prob...
Framebuffer vga=*** only affects what you see before the graphical login. You can also try by passing any of these values on boot: just type vga=792 for example, you'll see if boot information is displayed.
so for a 19' monitor, that would be 1280x1024*16 million colors. Should be OK. It so, add the line to menu.lst in grub.
