I have just built a new box for a friend, who I was hopeful of converting to Linux. I decided on a Gigabyte GA-K8NF-9 nForce4 mainboard (on-board Ethernet) and a GeForce 7300LE video card :_( SuSE 10.1 install appears to go fine until it gets to setting the video. The monitor and card are detected OK and a reasonable resolution is suggested, but the "sax2 test" just produces a black screen until it finally drops out. Setting the resolution to the lowest possible level (eg. 640x480 vga) makes no difference. The Ethernet is detected, but I have been unable to configure it to access my network dsl router. The port light on the router just sits there slowly flashing. The box is now working perfectly with Win XP, but I would still like to push on with my "evangelist" campaign and get this friend to try Linux. Any suggestions or pointers on how to get this box working with SuSE 10.1 would be very welcome. Dave -- Registered Linux User #288562 http://counter.li.org
