Hi all,

I got KnoppMyth installed with very little trouble, but I am having one issue. When I hit ctrl-alt-F1 to get an XTerm screen, all I get are green boxes on the screen. I am using an NVidia FX5200 to output to my TV.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

point of clarification ctrl+alt+F2 does not take you to an xterm it takes you to a console.

to fix the problem you need to change vga=??? to vga=normal in /etc/lilo.conf and run lilo -v then reboot. Above steps need to be done as root.

Xsecrets

And just to add on to X's reply, since right now you can't see the display to do any of those things on that computer, you'll either need to connect a monitor to it temporarily, or (best choice) use ssh and connect to the computer remotely, make the changes that X recommended, then "shutdown -r now" to reboot your computer.

Thanks guys!
