While it appears that this is because your monitor was un-detected, it is more likely tht it is simply that when starting X, the Xwindows drivers dont recognise your video card and never get it to the point where it is sending a signal to your monitor to display. > BUT OK IF IT NEED horizontal/vertical refresh rate and a resolution.

In the grub menu hilight the GNU/Linux menu item and press 'e' to edit. Then in the kernel parameters add the word 'single'. Quit from edit mode and press 'b' to boot. [/quote] once you are at a text prompt you should edit /etc/inittab and change the default runlevel to 3 until you have the problem fixed, then you can change it back to runlevel 5 (gui booting) You can test the config as you go by using "startx" as any user you are logged in as to try booting to Xwindows (NOTE: if you switched to the text console without rebooting then broken X is still running and you may need to reboot after changing the runlevel in order to get rid of it) > ANY ONE KNOW HOW CAN i FIX THAT PROBELM once you are in a text console then you can read the X Startup logs which shoudl be under /var/log somewhere - these shoudl tell you why your card failed to initialise - you may also wish to as google about Xwindows and your video card - some of the latest model cards do not work with the native XFree86 video drivers (most notibly some the latest nVidia range of cards) and need a vendor supplied driver to work well.. It would probably help to tell us what sort of video card you have. -- Steve. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
