I just got my copy of RedHat 4.2 and have had some good fun loading it
up tonight. :)
However I have a problem.
In MetroX I cannot get any video. Changing the drivers (I have a Cirrus
Logic GD5440 which isn't in the list) and resolutions/depths with
configX seems to make no difference. Naturally text works fine. I even
tried 16 colors 640x480 IBMVGA and that didnt work! I'm obviously
missing something. Can somebody point me in the right direction? Should
I change to XFree86?
