Alright, so I installed mandrake 10.0, it seemed to go fine, recognized everything without issues, ect. But when I got the system running, and switched the resolution from 800x600 to 1024x768 in KDE (the integrated card should do that fine with 128 mb of system ram), I found to my dismay that it glitched horribly, on two issues:
1.) The taskbar is totally absent. I have no idea what happened to it.
2.)It redraws the left side of the screen (about a quarter of it) to what appears to be the splash login screen. I can remove this "paint" with my mouse. Also, in a similar painting fasion, it draws the right side of windows there, it looks, before I mouse over it, like the window has wrapped around the screen. Also, the visual login screen is down in the bottom right, and most windows are opened like that.
How do I fix this? I will not tollerate any resolution delow 1024x768. Thats part of the reason why I bought this system in the first place!System specs:
128mb ram
AMD duron something
some form of VIA chipset (installer displays things fine)
