[linux-help] Display

["John Heffington" <john1982@xxxxxxx>]

I did have linux mandrake 8.1 installed, but I could not get the screen to 
display in 1027x768 properly. The screen would center itself in the very middle 
with a nice large black border around it. S3 does provide a driver for my 
Twister card, which I did download, but could not figure out how to install. It 
was in *.tgz format and I am only familiar with *.tar files. Oh ya, the only I 
could install mandrake correctly was by loading kernel 2-2-19 instead of 2-4-78 
(I think that is the number) because in 2-4-78 the installer would tell that 
"no hdalists!" and then crash to the point to where the cd-rom would not boot 
off of that cd. Anywho, I hope to get this all figured out soon.

Thanks!
