I have 8.0 and installed it for text mode operations and it couldn't probe my video monitor even though it was on and connected. The system did correctly detect my video card but not the monitor. SuperProbe seems to have been removed and I don't know of anything else to use to get it detected and configured. This for a totally blind person would seem funny except that if the monitor doesn't get detected figuring out a good setting for DISPLAY environment variable is going to be a real bear! As things stand, I can't run realplayer; trplayer, or bastille-linux even in the curses mode since bastille strangely enough requires the DISPLAY environment variable to bee set correctly before it will operate. If anyone has any ideas what's best to do in this situation I'd like to know. The only reason I reinstalled redhat is that that's the one version of Linux I have on which bastille will work. Bastille is a strange package anyway, what security package requires extra packages be downloaded and installed before it will work? That's right bastille. A simple text interface without all of the curses garbage and X garbage would have been lots more appropriate. Even the bastille authors admit on their web page http://bastille-linux.sourceforge.net/ that the X interface is less secure yet they offer it and hours were spent developing it. Those hours could have been better spent on other projects or in improving the basic operation of the package but were not, and for that reason even if I ever get bastille working at some point down the road I'll wonder how good it would be now without all of that time spent on X. _______________________________________________ Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
