Hello, I am trying to install Ubuntu on my Compaq sr5220an
desktop with integrated nvidia geforce 6150 and benq e2200hd monitor. Whatever I do I end up with a black screen. I have tried with 8.10 9.04, 9.10, lucid & debian. All work fine with my old crt monitor. I have installed nvidia-glx (173&185) via text mode,
but no difference. There was originally no xorg.conf, I made one with dpkg, but made no difference. Now I am running Fedora, which is fine, but not what I want to do. Anyone have any idea what to try next ?
many thanks, john
