I am afraid I deleted the answers to your message so I don't know whether more info was posted... It would be useful to know which version of X you are running, I sugest you post your XF86Config (resp. XF86Config-4 if you are running X 4.x.x) and your log (/var/log/XFree86.0.log) I assume you ran Xconfigurator as it is the standard conf. program for that distro. very likely you have a problem with the refresh or the color depth (I don't know how much video RAM you have) a possibility to get started is to use the vesa driver in X 4.x.x or the XF86_SVGA server in X 3.3.6 Lionel --- Joe Dupre <dupre@avab.com> wrote: > I did a default setup of RedHat 7.3.
