I find myself in a strange position.
My monitor went "pffftt!" earlier today so I broke down and bought a
19" flat panel (TFT-LCD) and it's really beautiful... under WINDOWS!
When I boot SuSE 9.3 it shows me the brief Grub info (after I select
what to boot) and then I get the little floating "Not Optimum Mode -
1280x1024 60 HZ Recommended". Well, too bad for me since I cannot
get the darn thing to stop switching into whatever mode it is that
gives me this error. I've tried booting with "vga=791", "fb=1024x768",
"splash=0", etc. without success. I've commented the entire
/etc/fb.config file except for 640x480 @ 60 hz without success.
I've also ran YAST from SSH and invoked SaX2 - no joy just a long "hang"
time before I finally hit ctrl-c.
It appears that even when running in runlevel 3 and looking at Virtual
Consoles the video is too darn fast.
Any suggestions as to how I slow this mother down long enough to get
it properly configured? Something like: fb=1024x768@60 would be nice
but that's useless like the others :-(
TIA
Eric
