I wanted to install it in order to get an easy firewall. The
installation seemed to go smoothly. That program had no problems
with its graphics displays. I was going to use Gnome. I have
tried a text login and then run startx, and also a graphics login.
Both ways give me one screen with a small terminal window, no pager.
I don't know what window manager it is, but evidently not sawfish
or fvwmx, twm, or any others I recognize.
The second (or third) time I installed it, I was careful to specify
the exact video card (Diamond Stealth 3D 2000) and monitor (Viewsonic
A70). These were working just fine under the RH6.0 or 6.2 that I had
before.
It seems unlikely but possible that my video card has a flaw. What
else? All advice gratefully recieved. This is on my home machine.
