I cant see!!

[Buck1]

I cant see a thing after it has detected my things such as the keyboard and sound.

It changes to this screen which i cant see at all it reminds me of water if it helps in any way.

How do i solve this particular problem??

[Buck1]

Is there a way of making it 800 by 600 pixels on 32-bit colour???

cause thats what windows is using and that goes about fine. also if i do, will it harm my system in anyway?? OS and all??

[bamarob]

boot up with:

knoppix screen=800x600 depth=24

[Buck1]

ok,

can this do anything to my hardware or windows xp??

I don't think so. If 800x600, 32 bpp is supported and works in windows, then 800x600, 24 bpp should work fine in Knoppix.

Will

knoppix screen=800x600

work??
And are the commands from the 'Boot>' thing??

Yes. You'll see

boot:

and you should type

knoppix screen=800x600 depth=24

so it looks like

boot: knoppix screen=800x600 depth=24

[Buck1]

It didnt work


But it looked allot better i could see what i think was the mouse pointer when i moved the mouse.

So is there a better way or if possible is there a lower resolution??

[Buck1]

ok, would this work??

knoppix screen=640x480 depth=24

Or is 800x600 the lowest??

Do you know what video card and how much video memory you have? If so, you might provide an 'xmodule=????' option at boot. When the boot: prompt comes up, hit F2 and check out the cheat codes.

Good luck.
