Hi,

I'm having difficulty upgrading from 6.7.1 to 7.0.5. My PC is a Shuttle XS35V3, and I boot Knoppix from USB using YUMI. The PC has dual screen support, one screen uses DVI and the other HDMI. Both are connected to 1280x1024 monitors but the HDMI monitor is normally not powered on.

This configuration works fine with 6.7.1. It boots up on the DVI monitor in 1280x1024 mode. However there is a video problem with 7.0.5. It starts booting up on the DVI monitor in 1280x1024, but then switches to the HDMI monitor in 1024x768 mode. The last text I see on the DVI monitor is "Starting DRM".

I'm just a Knoppix user, and am not familiar with its installation details. However I tried a few things. On the 2nd line of isolinux.cfg, just after APPEND, I added nodrm. That didn't help. I also tried video=1280x1024, but that didn't help either. I also tried replacing the entire 7.0.5 isolinux directory with the one from 6.7.1. That fixed the video problem, but prevented Knoppix from finding my internet connection.

I would appreciate your help. I would like to configure 7.0.5 to boot up in 1280x1024 mode on the DVI monitor. I suspect this is possible since 6.7.1 is doing that.

Thanks,
