Precise 5.5 video nasty
Posted: Thu 18 Apr 2013, 13:30
Not having my Slacko to hand at work I booted a machine from CD with Precise 5.5 and made no configuration changes.
This is how the menu looks (icons are being overwritten/not re-drawn and the tooltip/hints are invisible too).
Here are the details:
Precise 5.5 PAE
Pentium 4 3.06Ghz 1Gb RAM
Geforce FX5200 (I think it's 128Mb)
Puppy started X at 1280x960 resolution by default, might that be the problem? (On Win XP it's usually set at at 1024x768)
I'm not especially interested in a fix myself as this was a one-off use but thought the info might be of help (EDIT and wouldn't be a nice introduction for a new user!).
