Hi David, in order to answer 1 and 2 I have to do some tweaking here,
but meanwhile I would like to answer 3. I am quoting my reply to "Dave
Fallon":<br>
<pre wrap=""><i>the TV has a sign that changes through time - as follows:
When I switch to the TV mode and the PC is down or not connected it says "PC" (probably equivalent to "No Input" in regular PC monitors. when I reboot, and before the OS is taking over it says "VGA", when the OS is taking over it says "XGA" and the X takes over it returns to "PC".</i></pre>
<br>
Does this help? Can you elaborate on your suggestion "try removing..."?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>

I really need an X expert and I thought that since this group is

My problem is that I have </span></font><font size="2"><span

and the following PC: <br>
VoxBox-B - Accent HT-400 HTPC (Home Theater PC) Case for Full size ATX
board
with front USB and fire wire ports. <br>
I tried installing Fedora, booting Ubuntu Live CD (I also tried my
Laptop
with VGA=791 in the grub) no matter what I try, once the system start
the X the
screen goes black. This obviously stops me from installing ogro on my
Home
Theater PC...<br>
Seems to me this problem really requires an X expert... anyone?<br>
Here are some additional links to this problem (previous posts i made)<br>
