You're probably correct. The update was automatic and labeled as mandatory. I don't know what was updated. I don't even know how to find that out.
For instance: rpm -q -a --queryformat "%{INSTALLTIME}\t%{INSTALLTIME:day} \ %{BUILDTIME:day} %-30{NAME}\t%15{VERSION}-%-7{RELEASE}\t%{arch} \ %25{PACKAGER}\n" | sort | cut --fields="2-" | less -S
Second, it would help if you told us what kind of video card you have. Is it single or dual head (one monitor or two)?
The video card is an Nvidia Geforce 2. (Pretty old) Single monitor.
Using the 'nvidia' or the 'nv' driver? Ie, the comercial or the free driver? The former can fail easily after an upgrade. If that's the case, you should have a section like this in "/etc/X11/xorg.conf": Section "Device" BoardName "GeForce2 MX/MX 400" BusID "1:0:0" Driver "nv" Identifier "Device[0]" VendorName "NVidia" EndSection If you have driver "nvidia" instead, change it to "nv" and problem solved for the moment.
The output of lspci would be helpful.
I can't figure out how to get the output of lspci on this machine so I can send it to you. My local network is still in place. My problem is I can't get the output of ed (what happened to pico?) into a file that I can manipulate. I though >ed stuff would do it but apparently not.
pico comes with the pine mail program, which I don't suppose is installed by default. You will have "joe". Or you can ssh from another station, where you will have your full graphic modes working, I hope. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
