Re: Problems with X system

I had a similar problem woth my All in Wonder 7500VE and a HP S50 Monitor. The defauld settings for the monitor did not match the monitor's "official" specs. After fixing them, everything has been woking fine. The driver for my card is "Radeon 7500" (It could have changed since my 'upgrade to squirrel in detox'). As to starting out in text mode, you can edit your grub - add init 5 at the end of the second line, I think. Then you can change your config settings. I forget which one. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong - I'm half asleep here.

My monitor is alive again!!! It revived after just another computer restart. It's strange because I did not change anything. I will save working configuration of XF86Config. There is still way to go because my modem, scanner, and one of two CDROMs are not recognized by the system.

Can anybody suggest whether I can avoid loading X-system at the boot time?

Thanks everybody for help,

  Alex.

The horizontal sync and vertical refresh here don't match the specs
ViewSonic has on it's site:

There is says 30-82 for horizontal and 50-75 for vertical.

As far as I know, there is no driver called "ati". If your All-in-Wonder
is one of the Rage 128-based ones, you should use "r128"; if it's Radeon-
based, you should use "radeon" as the driver.
