I got Yellow Dog to install on my iBook G4 14" 1.2Ghz machine. It installed
ok, but the installer defaulted to the text installer. I have been trying
to get the X server to run.
I have been trying to do various things after reading various websites.
I modified the XF86Config file so that X would start, only the left 1/3 of
the screen would display an image (of the Gnome desktop), but it was all
skewed and scratchy. So I modified it some more, and I was able to get X to
start, but now the screen ballons into a dark white hue. (It looked very
damaging to the screen, so that did'nt last long :).
I reinstalled YDL, this time not setting up X windows in the install.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you,
Andy Z
