Thanks!
I have never so much as rebooted a Gateway before so that really doesn't tell me much. My video card is an ATI Radeon 7200 w/ 128M AGP. What's your chipset? There are cheat codes in the Docs section to specify the type of driver needed for Xwindows to work on your particular video chipset.I have onboard video on my gateway baby-at motherboard
The part you can't remember is what we need. There will actually be some useful error messages there. Write it down if nothing else.yes i log in as root
