Hi,
I'm new to Linux and I'm trying to install RH 6.1 on a Dell
Workstation 410. It is a dual 500Mhz Pentium II system with
128MB of RAM. The video card is a Diamond Fire GL 1000P
from 3Dlabs using Permedia2 chipsets. The monitor that I'm
using is also from Dell. It is a 21" M1110. I don't know who
originally manufactured the monitor.
The problem: The Install goes fine until it's time to configure the
monitor. The video card is detected. Unfortunately, the monitor
does not appear on the list. No problem. I choose the custom
option. This does not go well. I have the manual for the monitor.
The monitor is capable of doing 1600x1200 at 70Hz. There are
no real matches for the horizontal sync so I choose one that is
closest but not over (Either 40-150 or 50-100). Then it's time for the
autoprobe. Occasionally I get an error stating that there was a
problem with the clock. Most of the time it's okay. I finally get it
working and reboot. The problem is it looks like the resolution
is 800x600. On a 21" screen, that is obnoxious. I can't figure
out what is wrong. I've run Xconfigurator and cannot get it to
a better resolution. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Allen
