All, This may be slightly off topic for this forum, but I am hoping someone amy be able to lend a hand. I am currently building an LTSP environment to replace MS Windows for a charity organisation. They have had some old equipment donated to them for use in a community oriented training scheme they are putting together. It is important to emphasise that the budget for this implementation is nil, so I have to do what I can with what is there - upgrade is not an option! My test environment: _Server_ DISPLAY: 17" monitor VIDEO: Intel 810 (16Mb Video Ram) CPU: PIII 800 HDD: 60GB MEM: 384MB OS: RedHat 8.0 _Client_ DISPLAY: 14" monitor (Elonex superVGA - SV14) VIDEO: Phoenix S3 Trio32/64+ (1Mb Video RAM) CPU: P75 HDD: 0.5GB MEM: 32MB The problem here is the monitor (mainly). Under Windows 98 (the original OS), the max monitor resolution appears to be 640x480 16bit. I have had to set this ltsp client up with XF86_VGA16 as XF86_S3, XF86_S3V and XF86_SVGA (version 3.3.6) nor XFree86 (version 4.2.0) would drive the monitor properly - I tried numerous modelines using http://www.dkfz-heidelberg.de/spec/linux/modeline/ as I do not have the monitor documentation (requested from vendor 2 weeks ago, still no luck). The problem is that the graphics appear VERY grainy (including the standard RH8.0 background). Does anyone have any suggestion as to how I could possibly improve this? I am thinking that if Windows can display clearly on this monitor, then (hopefully) Linux should be able to as well. Thank you for your time and assistance.
