Respected Sir,
My name is Om Soni & I live in Barwani (M.P.), India. I am a new user of
Linux operating system. I am very interested in Linux. So, I purchased Red Hat
Linux ver. 10 (Fedora) edition of it. I have installled it in my computer. Since
installation I am facing problem due to my display adaptor(Graphics Card).
Whenever it goes in GUI mode my monitor turns off and its LED light becomes
blinking as it does in Shut down mode. So I had to install it in text mode. I
have Intel Celeron 2000 MHZ. computer with 256 MB ram and 40 GB Hard disk space
with Windows 98 & Windows XP installed. I have Samsung Samtron 45Bn Monitor
& Via Chipset mother board. My Windows Operating system shows that I have
"S3 Graphics ProSavage DDR" Display adaptor. When I tried to
install linux it probed my monitor correctly & display card as "S3
ProSavage KM133" but didn't able to start GUI mode. After installation
I tried to configure XFree86Config file with these commands as root user :-
(1) XFree86 -configure
(2) XFree86 -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new
Than I tried to start GUI mode by "startx" command. It
started but only in 640 X 480 display mode and 256 colors. Then I copied this
new config file to /etc/X11/XF86config & restart GUI mode. It started in 640
X 480 mode with 256 colors with garbled screen. Then I tried
"redhat-config-xfree86" command to set display mode as 800 X
600 with millions of colors & 1024 X 768 with millions of colors. But both
setting are not working. Whenever I start Linux my monitor turns off and starts
blinking. But it is working in 640 X 480 mode with 256 colors.
I live in a village and here is no one who knows Linux. I am the only person who
know something about Linux. So I am asking some help from you to solve my
problem. Please help me in this matter so that I can solve my problem & can
use Linux without any problem. Please also keep in mind that I don't have
indepth knowledge of Linux so please give me detailed instructions to solve my
problem. Please reply me as soon as possible. I am waiting for your
reply.
Thanking You.
Your truly
