I've got a fairly old Compaq Presario with 266mHz processor, 64MB Ram, a Virge DX video card and a Viewsonic 17PS monitor.
I installed Mandrake 7.2 and the install went fine. However after reboot, when it tried to start X, the screen went blank and I got a message on my monitor saying there was "No video signal". During the X setup, of the installation, I selected the Viewsonic 17PS monitor from the list.
Any ideas as to what could be causing this?
I've gone back to Drake 7.0, though 7.1 works fine also. I've installed TurboLinux, Debian, Storm and Drake and all went fine. I suspect there is some incompatability between X4 and the Virge DX video card.
Thanks for your help. :)
