Had to change /dev/cdrom2 in fstab to /dev/sr1
Now just for that screen resolution.....
Hi,
I did a hd install and all works fine....
I have a cd drive which Knoppix/Debian (which do I have now? hahahha) picked up no problem, but I also have a cd burner that it didn't add (SonyCRX140E) how can I install this so I can access it?
I tried "mkdir /cdrom2" (as cdrom is not located in the "/mnt" directory like it was in Mandrake 9.0)
Then I copied the "cdrom" info from "/etc/fstab" but changed it to "cdrom2" where necessary tried to mount it but it tells me it does not exist.....
Any ideas .... (I am trying!)
Also I only have access to 800 / 600 resolution or something LARGER...
I would really like 1024 / 768 my monitor is well capable of this...
Any help here too ?
Thanks
Proceed
Had to change /dev/cdrom2 in fstab to /dev/sr1
Now just for that screen resolution.....
what video card are you working with?
Nvidia tnt2
I downloaded drivers from Nvidia and installed them no worries
NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-4191.tar.gz
NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-4191.tar.gz
Installed and edited the xf86Config-4 file no worries..
(Tuxracer runs fine)
Proceed
odds are you will just have to uncomment a few lines in the config file....
Post your XF86Config file.
Here is my XF86Config-4 file as made by Knoppix, the only adjustment I have done is to add Load "glx" and remove Load "dri" & Load "GLcore"
from the Module section and change Driver "nv" to Driver "nvidia" .
Apart from this everything is working fine including Tuxracer so I know the Nvidia drivers are installed corectly.
Would it be as simple as putting "1024x768" in the Section "screen" ?
Thanks

The Modes under "Screen" section only listed 800x600 and 640x480. You can added the other resolution I believe. However, the monitor section doesn't have entries for 1024x768 and I don't know what that means.
Still learning this XFree86 stuff myself. The numbers are just like cryptic to me.
I took a punt and added the lines below and it worked ....
Hahhhhh Linux is sooooooooooo cooooollllllllllllllll ! !
Thanks for the help eveyone.
****Would it be as simple as putting "1024x768" in the Section "screen"******
Glad you took the initiative to get it fixed proceed! You could obviously change the default depth to 8, 16, 24 or 32 and of course you'd need to add "1024x768" to those lines as well.Originally Posted by proceed
