Tárgy: Re: [dyne:bolic] video question
Try hooking a monitor up to the vga out and boot up again. It may be
defaulting to the vga out instead of the built-in lcd. I've run into
this on older laptops. It's a hardware thing, I think, and not a dyne
thing. You can also try fiddling with the video output function keys on
your laptop while its booting.

Let me know how it works out.

Cheers,

-Kent

(that is X starts correctly and i have an interface) what's up with that?? i'm sure it is probably my ignorance that is ultimately at fault but if someone could please give some kind of clue of what to do i would be much appreciative! peace, jeffrey p
