Re: Xorg, nvidia, overscan and other questions...

I think I have to give up on my multi distro idea. Right now Ubuntu is the only distro that is usable without a ton of tweeking. Anything with KDE by defualt has fonts too small to read to follow the prompts for install, and half of the distros just give me a blank screen instead of a gui install. I can alt+f2 or ctrl+alt+f2 back to the cli but the gui wont show up. Ubuntu had the same problem untill I told it to boot into "Safe Graphics" in boot options.

Maybe after I get a better tv to use as a monitor I'll try some of the others again.

So I guess I just have to wait for nvidia to allow screen resizing to fix the overscan problem.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I'll probably have some more soon...
