You read my mind...backup is done. I tried installing a fresh copy of FC5.
Now when I reboot after an install my monitor gives me a "Signal out of
range" and goes into sleep mode before booting is complete....and it
soesn't come back.. any ideas?
I have HP f2105. They don't support Linux..
Are you using the DVI-D input (White cable if I remember) or the VGA
(blue cable) to the monitor. You should be able to set your desired
default settings in the Monitor menu. I have a Dell monitor which I use
the VGA cable and it works. I did not try the DVI-D input in Linux for
this display.
At least you have a basic system that you can try to start in runlevel 3
to try to reconfigure the display. You might try to see if the graphical
login (rhgb) is causing the problem first. You can hit a key to show the
boot menu, highlight your desired kernel, press the a key (for appending
information on the boot line.) Once you are on the kernel line,
backspace out the rhgb information followed by hitting enter to boot the
computer.
