- Folks,
-
- my first time posting - have a bit of Unix experience, but am new to Linux.
-
- Just got a new PC at home - Dell box with Windows XP. Added a second hard disk
- for Linux. Partitioned the disk and have installed Suse 7.2 from CD, which went
- fine except it didn't pick up my monitor.
-
- I have a Dell branded E151FPp 15" LCD flat panel monitor and a nVidia GeForce4
- Ti4200 video card, both of which are probably too new to feature in Suse's default
- set. I downloaded a driver from the nVidia website and installed it using RPM.
- Then I ran Sax2 (as was recommended in some postings I found on the net), but
- it still doesn't feature my video card in the available list. What next?
-
- Another problem. I have a Dell branded keyboard and if I hit Caps-Lock twice,
- the whole machine crashes (in Linux, not Windows) - even the on/off switch is
- inactive, leaving me to reach for the power cable instead.
-
- If anyone can help me in any way with these probs., I'd be really grateful -
- I've searched the 'net but have run out of ideas.
-
- Or should I be going for a different version of Linux such as RedHat? Opinions
- welcome.
-
- Thanks a lot,
- Peter
