Usually, the video mode stays the same until you start up X, unless the kernel has a vga=xxx option set in the bootloader to change to a different text mode or to enable framebuffer console on a system that has it built into the kernel. Alternatively, there's a moderate chance that enabling the framebuffer would help in this situation. Also, GeForce cards will auto-detect the presence of an S-Video output, from what I recall, so you might want to try plugging in a TV to see if anything is coming out that port when the system is booting. -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ MS Windows -- From the / \/ \(_)| ' // ._\ / - \(_)/ ./| ' /(__ people who brought you \_||_/|_||_|_\\___/ \_-_/|_|\__\|_|_\ __) EDLIN!
