Equipment: P133 32meg RAM hda=1.68Gb, hdb=3.8Gb, VGA=Diamond Stealth 64PCI Linux= Redhat 4.0 Partitions hdb: p1=40mb swap extended, then l1=30mb / l2=400mb /usr l3=400mb /home l4=80mb /usr/local Problem: Linux works fine, but can't get X to boot. Configured with MetroX, selecting Diamond Stealth 64 PCI driver, trying various resolutions, but monitor goes blank, and its on/off light goes from green to orange! Start X with xinit -- -bpp 24, and also tried 8, and X window starts to show, then goes blank with monitor on/off going from green to orange. Please Help - I'm desperate for X. Thanks in advance Ron mathimagix at worldnet.att.net
