I gave it a shot using the info from here. Set to boot from USB and it tells me something like can't find kernel? I'll try again and get correct info. Playing with my self Santa 22" LCD.

Damn buster, you're becoming a nerd.

Nope. Just have a look at the Sudoku thread to put at rest any thoughts of that!!

From another forum. I like other folks line of thinking.

Yes, I got your PM but it is best to answer on the forum; it may be that some others have suggestions for you also. Plus the fact that we all can learn.

OK. Here's what the PM was about.

I got the new LCD monitor, per suggestion by RH. Am happy with it. But think I need to adjust the colors, contrast for me. Does anyone know of a web site that'll put up a test pattern, like to adjust old TVs? Maybe new glasses are the answer? I'm getting old and belive if it ain't broke, don't fix it. My best learning experiences come from have to,and stupid mistakes. Thanks Ranchhand and please take this as a xmas joke. "Anyone needing answers about new LCD monitors, please look under Unix, Linux, and BSD help please." Merry Whatever! bb

The hardware diagnostics that come with better computers (for free) also provide such diagnostic viewing patterns. Try your video controller manufacturer. Sometimes (rarely) they have those video diagnostics. Even the original IBM PC had such diagnostic video patterns with the diagnostic software.

I've been good Glatt, but busier than *your favorite phrase here*. I've been popping in from time to time to check out the IOTD, but this is the first time in a long time I've been able to cruise some of the other forums.

Hope everyone here had a great CristmaHannuQuanza!
