I'm having some problems with my screen in Linux.
The screen is the one I got with my computer (Cibox), extremely crappy (black fades to red and blue on the edges), and was set to 1024x768 in 32bit at 60hz in Windows.
Now, when I installed Mandrake, the closest option that worked was the 1024x768 Generic Laptop Display. But now it seems that I cannot change the settings through the Mandrake Control Center - whatever resolution, display or depth I choose, it gives off an error. Also, the screen isn't shown in the same place as in Windows: It's a bit to the right. Move it to the left, and the Windows screen is too far to the left.
I would really like to get these oddities solved before I download nVidia's drivers for my GeForce 2 Ti.
