??? Yes, I do not know what they meant, except maybe they meant to type
linux at the LILO: prompt. (Which is a different thing altogether.

Now that you actually have a prompt, type
Xconfigurator
which will bring up that screen that was there at the installation.

Page through, until it asks about your card. It should have chosen one
for you. (Second page) What does it say? 
As for your monito, choose customr, get out your monitor manual and see what its specs
are. What resolution can it handle and at what freqs. If in doubt choose
the lowestStandard VGA-- although I am sure that it can do better than
that.
Then choose the freq ranges-- look them up in your monitor manual.
etc.
