When installing to a laptop I have found the laptops using system memory as video memory you need to do two things along with the Linux command and they are: 1. mem=200M This tells Linux to use only the first 200M of system memory allowing the video routines to use part of it too. 2. There is another I can not remember but it stops the video from using interlaced scan. This is what I had to do since Red hat V9 came out to get it to boot and install using the graphic interface.

In brief, I struggle to configure a laptop screen display properly....problems which I never seem to have with a "standard" terminal. Either I am overlooking something, or the display for a laptop screen becomes a trial-and-error proposition. Oh, I get it to work. But, it's always a struggle, and I'm never sure if I'm doing it right. Thoughts? Tips?
