Newbie Alert - On. I have seen similar problems discussed on this list before - now it is my time to get stuck: I installed RH6.1 clean using Sony Multiscan 100ES monitor - all went fine. I then replaced the monitor with Smile KFC CA1515VS - and the display was very dark and distorted. OK, monitor syncs are wrong, I thought. I then adjusted the display with xvidtune, ending up with a good display. Now, whenever I reboot the machine, I will first end up (the Login screen) with a 1024 x 768 desktop displayed at 640 x 480 screen. I.e. if I move the mouse cursor near the edge of diplay, the desktop will scroll to show more area at that edge. Where can one set the desktop size? This was the "piece -of-pie" part. Now for the tricky one: I enter my login and password, and when Enlightenment and Gnome is starting up - the machine freezes completely!!! Stuck. This may also happen as early as when the large "Red Hat" circular logo is displayed or any time after that. But I never get Gnome default windows opened before the system dies. The KFC monitor has following sync frequencies: Video bandwidth: 80 MHz Horizontal sync: 30-60 kHz Vertical sync: 50-100 Hz With Xconfigurator I made sure I do not overdrive the monitor. HOW ON EARTH CAN A MONITOR CRASH THE SYSTEM?? My hardware is: RH Linux 6.1 for Alpha Digital Alpha XL266 96 Mb RAM S3 Trio 64 DRAM pci (764) display adapter, 1 Mb video RAM Smile KFC CA1515VS monitor Yes, Using Sony monitor would clear the problem, unfortunately this is not an option for permanent use.
