really messy screen problem - Arax - 2004-03-04


the login screen, gnome and everything graphical is messed up... i dont know how to explain how it looks...

once i managed to shut down the computer, and in the text thing the graphics where nice...

 

i use a geforce 2 mx 420 graphics adapter and a acer aspire 56a screen

sounds like you are using the wrong screen resolution for your monitor

 

make sure to specify them correctly in

 

redhat-config-xfree86

 

good luck !

 

cheers
