ThinkPad issue in 15.0

<< < (2/2)

thane:
The xrandr fix (followed by startx) works. Thanks for the help!

I don't currently have an xorg.conf file in my setup. From what I can find online the layout looks a bit intimidating.

Rich:
Hi thane
You can have Xorg create an xorg.conf file for you.
Click the  Exit  icon
Select  Exit to Prompt
Then:

--- Code: ---sudo Xorg -configure
--- End code ---
The file will either be be placed in your home directory
or the /root/ directory.

You can use that as a starting point and modify it.

Thanks Rich. After a lot of fiddling I finally got xorg.conf to work (required two extra lines of code in the file that was generated, and deleting unused Screen Display subsections).

Although the box now boots to a usable desktop, the boot process still looks odd (screen blanking part way through, some messages not being displayed). So there may still be something missing or not being loaded right. I'll keep fiddling and see what happens.

Thanks again for the help!
