I've just install a the version of RH7.0 that comes with Red Hat 7 for dummies.
the install goes alrightbut when X config's it's self, i end up with a screen that's the full width of my monitor, but only half the height.
It's a dual boot with win98 box, so if i buut up win98 first and then use winux to bring up linux, it says it found a new videocard and network card (no i hadn't changed them). tghen when i config X with the "New" hardware, half the time, It can't find a setup that works (about half the time), so i have to reboot and try again or it does work and i end up with a dicplay that's 50%bigger than my monitor, so i have to scroll arond it. (although it's better than squinting).
that and every time i reboot it a diffrent way, (strait up or though win) it refinds my video and network cards and wants to reconfig X. half the time not working.
I'm posting my x86config, (in a txt file) some one sugested it might help.
I've got a AMD K6 233 with a mach64 video card and 3com 3c905 NIC
any ideas? thanx
