At boot (tried four times), startup screen shows and after that my screen no longer gets any signal. What is wrong? I have a radeon x1600 card, any other hardware you need to know to help me solve my problem?
Hi
Guess Suse11?
Had Problems with my x1950… try getting into the console (eg failsave-start) as root.
Sax2 -r -m 0=vesa
Should activate your grafical environment with standard “vesa” drivers…
if not starting, go into grafical environment with
startx
after this…
Surely no 3D etc. in vesa-mode, i didn’t manage to get my ati-driver work yet g
where should i enter the code. if i just choose fail safe the same happens, so shuould i enter the commands somewhere?
can i start opensuse in text mode? so i can install the latest radeon drivers from commandline? is thie possible?
even in failsave-mode you don’t even get a console shown on your screen??!!
Uhm… hardware-issues? Videocard or screen defect? Did you test with another screen?
Concerning linux/kernel-stuff itself others could help more than me! :-/
