X and Fluxbox :: wrong configuration on boot
Hi guys, finally I can boot DSL on my toshiba libretto! but... now I have a problem, I canīt use it because the monitor configuration is wrong and is impossible to read it. There is some way to fix this? I have downloaded the correct XFree86 configuration file and perhaps I can load DSL with the correct configuration but, how?
Also I have the driver but obviously I canīt load it :-(
Thanks in advance for your replys and time.

DSL doesn't have xfree86.
You can use xsetup.sh to set the proper X settings, or pass the setting setting directly from the Boot: prompt with one of the vga=XXX cheats detailed on the F3 screen.
I am very lucky. All my computers work with DSL,
but everytime I go to show it off, I run into problems.
Mostly video. One is a 1 year old DELL, and I'm not at it
right now to report the hardware in it. The other is this older
GATEWAY SOLO...
I'm hoping somebody else who tinkers has an easy
solution.
try fb800x600
or xvesa at 800x600x16
gee thanx SaidinUnleashed....
I couldn't get the fb800x600 so I used this boot
prompt for the GATEWAY SOLO gateway solo:
dsl vga=788 xsetup expert
when it came time to pick the FB or Xvesa I took FB.
Cool... I'll try the same with the DELL.
Thanks so much
