One by one, things are getting fixed, the only thing right now that is a
recurrent issue is with the video.
When I set the system up it was set at 800 X 600, the screen is a 1024
X 768. So when it asked me if I wanted to set a different video res I did
so. I also selected LCD as it had selected VESA. I then proceeded to
step through the process to the point where it asked to test the screen.
When it did I got a screen a vertical SaX along one side and a smaller
screen in the middle that had some controls but they were all grayed
out all but the cancel button. I saw it took the res so I canceled and
saved it anyhow. Now every time I restart X I get this message that says
the following:
Your monitor didn't report its X- and Y-Size, this might cause display
problems like unreadable fonts.
Do you want to configure your monitor geometry manually?
If I say yes I get dumped back to the same set of screens and the same results.
I was willing to live with it until I went to download Evolution using the wget
command, it came back saying it could not set up the screens because my
X and Y size had not been set.
I am trying to figure out how to get around this one, has anyone seen this one?
