Suse 9.2 pro on HP Omnibook 6000

[twd...@hardenmfg.com]

I installed Suse and now when it loads up I have a 1/2 inch white line
running all the way across my screen. I don't think it read the screen
setup correct. How/what can I do to fix this?

First, make sure you have the specs for your monitor (resolution/freqs)
and do the following from KDE:

Ctrl-Alt-F2
(login as root)
init 3
(wait for everything to close and you get a prompt)
sax2

and setup your monitor. If you can't get a readable screen when you do
the 'sax2' command, try instead:

sax2 -l

(lowercase L, not a number one).

When you're finished, enter:

init 5

That should work (SaX2), but if not, look at:

They have some info there.
