Hi there,
I am having some problems installing Suse 11.0 32-bit on a pc which currently runs 10.3.
The problem is that the graphic mode is not properly supported, either by my video card (nvidia riva tnt) or by Suse.
When I start the dvd the grub bootloader screen comes up OK, but whatever install option I choose, I end up in a unusable install screen:
1. In graphical mode (in any resolution from 640x480 to whatever higher) I end up in a lot of green squares, or some rubbish on the screen, typically in EGA-mode resolution (looks familiar as a first time pc-user);
2. In text mode I end up in the screen being addressed in a very low resolution (again something like EGA), where half of the information falls of the screen, making any navigation impossible.
Does anybody have a clue how to solve this (beside replacing the video card)?
Joost
