Hello,
I've just got a new notebook Compaq Presario
2811EA, P-4, 256mb ddr ram, with a ATI Radeon Mobility 7500 32mb AGP(LW) display
card.
Installation of Redhat 7.2 was done alright. Driver
for the display card was 'Generic Radeon'.
I was able to start kdm or xdm, but the display is
all messed up, with vertical streaks running thru the entire length of the
screen. I have tried all possible combination for resolutions/refresh
rates with the same effect.
I have also tried changing "Driver
'radeon' to Driver 'vesa' " in my XF86Config-4 file. This made my X login
screen fine. But when I try logging in, it tries a couple of times with my
screen blinking and finally exits back to the console.
I have XP as dual-boot, which works fine. Using
Exceed , i can access my Linux X-display from other pc's, so the installation ,i
figured is okay.
Someone, anyone..please Help!
thank you,
Dennis M.
