Hi Im having problems with my new screen, where at boot time i get a message "out of scan range
37.1KHz 50HZ"
And only when KDE has started and i get the login screen the piccture shows. I cant even go into BIOS cause i dont see anything until its booted. What can i do about this? I had problems with my old screen also like when i shutdown via the kmenu the screen switches off and doesnt come back on. i had to type "shutdown -h now". Also if i change the resolution with SAX when i get to the test window the screen switches off and now {crtl alt del} or {ctrl alt bs} helps. Anyone knows how to resolve this?
I have this problem when I try to run Spheres of Chaos with my monitor - basically, the output from the video card in standard text mode is simply too slow for your monitor. You might like to try to connect an older monitor, switch into text mode, and use YaST to set a text mode with a higher resolution and refresh rate; that might bring it up within range of your new monitor. You still won't be able to access the BIOS with your new monitor, though.
