[ale] still more building a new box woes

[pete.hardie at sciatl.com (Pete Hardie)]

Hello again, all!

Well, I managed to get the drives working, and an install worked, but I ran into 
the GRUB memory detection error.  So another install and choosing LILO managed 
to get a working install.

However, the monitor detection can't find my monitor type (IBM G72).  I choose 
IBM G70, and boot - I see the text stuff, dmesg type stuff, and then black screen.

I'm assuming some X problem, or a bad monitor specification.  I'll try a low-res 
setup (640x480) tonight just to see if it's one of those things.  The video 
chipset ia nVidia - anyone know of problems of this nature for that set?

TIA,

--
