The redhat-config-xfree86 config script barfs... python error... it doesn't like the data coming back from the LCD screen where it's supposed to describe itself to the video card / computer.... I mean, why would Apple comply with an industry standard? > http://www.info.apple.com/support/manuals.html#display yep... no manual there for the Apple Studio Display 17" LCD (ADC). I use a Dr. Bott's DVI-ator to power/adapt between the ATI Radeon 9700 Pro All-In-Wonder's DVI-D port and the ADC connector. Console mode works fine. XFree86 config and manually hacked config files have failed... the screen just goes black while XWindows starts up. I have seen some clues that the NForce2 AGP8x driver for the AGP8x slot the ATI 9700 sits in may not be correct... I'm running RedHat 9 Pro with full up2date. Trying a VGA multiscan on the other port got nowhere... -- Copyright 2003 Angela Kahealani. All rights reserved without prejudice; UCC1-207.
