Hi :)
It's just me seeking your advice on a problem I should be able to solve on
my own. I have a friend who's computer dies and we decided to run linux.
Slack installs fine. It's just that we can't seem to get x working. The
cursor is funny and there is a big black line down the centre of the
screen. When I tried to install Mandrake, the screen showed fine, so X
should be able to handle this. The PC is a P200, with the video card
built into the motherboard. We have tried many different x servers
including the generic svga one. Does anyone have any suggestions for
either a solution or any more additional information to hep diagnose this?
