Fine, since there is no other way to get a "display" entry in the "Administration" menu, does that mean if the system makes totally inappropriate choices on video I should go to another distribution, or is there some secret way (ie. not available on the admin menu) to get a reasonable display setting? And while I'm at it, why can the installer use a reasonable video mode but the OS boot doesn't? Your typical user isn't going to boot in single user, create an Xorg.conf file, and edit it to sanity with vi. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
