Hello EverybodyI am a Linux newbie and has been enchanted by DSL since last couple of days. I have spent hours after hours exploring DSL and its oppertunities. I have fixed almost all of my configuration issues except one. I am facing issue with my Display on my old laptop. Laptop Details: IBM 600E 2646 (4BU) RAM 96 MB Display Chipset: NeoGraphic [MagicMedia 256AV] (Detected Correctly) Problem: Red & Blue color shades are swapped. The resolution and quality is acceptable. But the color seems to be odd. Do I need to install any specific drivers or change some settings? Please guide me in getting through this. Thanks in advance.

The usual question - have you tried Xfbdev yet? Or 16-bit depth on Xvesa?Select Xsetup from the control panel to change these, and then restart X (ctrl-alt-backspace, "startx") Posted by hasslehawk on Sep. 23 2008,15:59
So silly of me... I never changed the depth always tried to change the resolution. Thanks a lot for quick response. I never thought world outside windows is so exciting. Enjoying DSL !!! |
