Message-ID: Date: 26 Jun 91 15:51:38 GMT Sender: news@fs7.ece.cmu.edu (USENET News System) Distribution: comp Organization: Electrical and Computer Engineering, Carnegie Mellon Lines: 9 I've just installed System V rel. 4.0 on my i486 workstation, and I'm trying to get X11 up. When I start the xserver (via xinit), everything seems to work fine except only about the upper 1/4 of the screen is visible. The rest of the screen is blank or filled with horizontal lines. The visible part seems to work OK: mouse, cursor, etc. Does anyone have an idea of what might cause such a condition? Thanks for any ideas, Chuck
