Some VG series has out of box failure where it can't display the boot up sequence and spits out flashing "out of range" error msg. If that what is happening to you, bring it to where you buy it from. If not, the VGs in my office are happily running Mandrake 10.1 with ATI Radeon cards ;) =bob= "public" <public@public.com> wrote in message news:42b79e4a@dnews.tpgi.com.au... > I've bought a Viewsonic VG900 and when I've tried to run SuSE Linux 9.3 > and SLES 9.0 it > comes with an "out of range" message and the screen goes black. > > I've tried to change resoulutions and the only resolution that I could get > "going" is > 800x600 - 24 bit but the image has no sharpness, very blured. >
