I am a fairly new linux user, and have recently installed Debian on its own hard disk in what will eventually become a dual-boot system. The Windows drive is currently not connected, so that isn't a factor. My graphics card is an nvidia 8800 gts.
My problem is that when I start up Debian, I get the initialization screen, which runs fully, and disappears just after GNOME starts up. I then get what I think is a password-prompt beep from the motherboard, but the monitor remains off, which is how it normally handles being given an incorrect resolution. I can, however, successfully log into the single-user root option that grub gives me, and get a fully functioning terminal. My question is how to go about setting GNOME into VGA (or some low resolution) through the terminal.
