issue w/fresh install of Sarge on PPC and 17" Apple Studio Display CRT
Hi all,
Thanks for help previously regarding the PowerEdge. The basic things
are set up again, cleanly, and I'm exploring.
I went ahead and decided to install Sarge on an old Blue & White 350Mhz
G3 at home. The install went fine, but when it was all over and I was
brought to a login I was given a text prompt and the screen goes to
black at regular, frequent, intervals. I can barely finish typing a
login before it goes to black and it appears not to take my typing
during the "black-outs" or characters seem to get taken oddly...
anyway...
Not sure what is going on. I think I may have set the resolution too
high during the setup, but I don't know how to go about fixing this
(nor am I sure this is the case).
I have an ATI Rage 128 video card, and that, in combination with the
monitor is supposed ot be capable up to 1600x1200 -- I may have set the
wrong frequency or something. Anyway, I'm kind of stuck at even getting
in to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86.
Matt
