calling all gurus . . .
I am very much a newbie and have a basic question. Forgive me if I'm
unclear . . . I sometimes type faster than I can think !!
I've installed RH 7.2 on my Dell laptop (inspiron 3700), and I ran
through the GUI-based installation, accepting most of the defaults.
Problem is, my video display is less than wonderful. Nothing I can't
see, just some flickering and some blurry spots. I also can't get a
resolution higher than 1024 x 768.
When I got to the select Monitor type during the install, I just
accepted Generic Laptop Display Panel. Is there something else I can
do? Anything is possible (except a separate monitor). I bought a
separate hard drive just so I could crash and burn the whole thing if
necessary.
Thanks in adv. . .
