I missed your previous posts, maybe clicking real fast, but I have an integrated video in the motherboard and I use OpenChrome driver.

When I installed the machine, I booted to level 5, and I tried to play a dvd and I would see lines across the screen and I have a Samsumg SyncMater 914v Flat Panel Monitor.  I tried getting the via drivers and thankfully they did not compile.  What I did to fix my situation was the following:

Change inittab:5 to 3, that is from level 5 to level 3
and then type startx.

What I noticed is that I did not see the lines that I saw when the system booted into level 5.  I played movies and did not see the bad lines that I previously saw.  This corrected the issue for me.  I also use Slax Linux on this machine and when the machine booted and logged in automatically to X, the lines appeared, but then, I booted in text mode and created a module for the OpenChrome drivers 

http://www.slax.org/modules.php?action=detail&id=713

I started X with startx and the lines did not appear.  Problem was solved for me.  I hope that this helps you with your problems.

Regards,

Antonio
