Subject: [ILUG] Newbie seeks advice - Suse 7.2
|

|
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
