I just finished installing Linux on my server and installed Samba and a bunch of other programs and when I went to reboot the server and it tried to boot back into gnome... It just goes to the
'localhost login:' text screen then it (normally boots into the gnome login screen) but now it just flashes the command line screen then goes black... flashes then goes black... etc...I ran the rescue disk and booted into command line... The I got into /etc/X11 and my XF86Config looked like this...
Identifier "Monitor0"
VenderName "Monitor Vender"
ModelName "Monitor Model"
HorizSync 31.5-48.5
VertRefresh 50-70
Option "dpms"EndSection
Then under Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Trident CyberBlade(generic)"
DefaultDepth 16Subsection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubsectionEndSection
Okay... I moved my cursor into the "Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" " line... Then I deleted everything so that the only thing that was left was (Modes "640x480")
I've changed the depth's from 16 to 4 and it still doesn't make a difference. It does the same thing... Please help...
Thanks
-Andy
