Compaq 1080 video troubleForum: Laptops Topic: Compaq 1080 video trouble started by: hdstn Posted by hdstn on July 11 2006,14:18
I have a 1080 I am trying to get DSL running on. I can boot it, I just can't get the screen to display properly. I have tried all the resolutions and options I could find but to no luck. Any suggestions??I also had noticeed an old post re: pcmcia not starting. I found this link that should prove quite helpful once I am able to see what it is I am trying to do. < PCMCIA driver install > Posted by Deumex on July 12 2006,10:30
Hi,maybe you should tell us what exactly you mean with "not working properly". For example on my old Compaq lappy I had to edit the xorg.conf file because it did not want to work in 800x600. Before this it always came up with 640x480, no matter what I tried... Posted by hdstn on July 12 2006,14:09
What I was trying to relate was the screen was pretty much unreadable. Somehow I must have been screwing something up (read:picking wrong options) but have now got it to work beautifully in FB800x600. Thanks for the reply. |
