Hi idwidar,

Thanks for your question! Do you now what's your video? If you know, choose him in "System" -> "Administration" -> "Screens and Graphics".

For know, type "lspci | grep VGA" (without quotation marks) in "Applications" -> "Accesories" -> "Terminal".

Cheers,

Grazieno

Hi idwidar,

Go to System -> Administration -> "Screens and Graphics".

There configure "Model" for your monitor model. Search for "Graphics Card" -> Driver -> "Choose driver by name" and type Sis.

Click in Ok button.

Did you do this? Tell me what happened!

Good luck,

Grazieno
