Hi List,
Where should I start on troubleshooting this? I installed FreeBSD and
included X and Gnome 2 environment. I selected the lowest resolution (VGA)
to see if it would work (I have had trouble getting X to work with some
flavors of Linux on this machine). When I run startx, I get garbage on the
screen and the computer locks up. Same problem with other resolutions.
I have a Dell Inspiron 8100. It uses the nvida GeForce2 GO. Dell will
provide no other technical specifications. In windows I use 1600x1200 and
32-bit colcor. What other information do you all need?
Regards,
Scott
