sudo service gdm start gives me gdm start/running then a process ID. CTRL-ALT-F7 brings me to the same screen though.
Also, I tried appending vga=318 but that did not have any effect.
In case this helps, after "Stopping GNOME Display Manager," it says:
Once again, thanks for the troubleshooting!
@emerick7-- I'm sorry if I missed it, but I don't see where you posted what video card you are using(?) ... also, you said you tried "vga=318"...
If you could post the results from
Code:
sudo hwinfo --framebuffer
or
sudo hwinfo --framebuffer > ~/video_results.txt
Please insure that you highlighlight it and press the "#" button to wrap code tags around it. That will tell us what video you have and what modes are available to it.
