colors
Hello, I am somewhat new to linux. I just installed Red Hat 7.2 and when I try to load gnome or KDE in colors above 8bit it will kind of lock up and display some wierd scrambled cable look. I have an ATI Radeon 7000. I check out my monitor settings they are fine. Is it the graphics card? I set my graphics card to a generic radeon. Any Ideas? Also I have a Broadxent DSI V.92 Modem and I don't have any drivers for it. I could use some help with that one too. I'm on Win2k right now. Thanks
