# Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))
# Option "Xleds" "1 2 3"
# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
# Option "XkbDisable"
# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"

Could you post your output for "ddcprobe" ?

Thomas

[FreeEagle]

how should i do it ? can you explain which command should i write?

[tchung]

$ su -
(type your root password)
# ddcprobe

This will probe your videocard and monitor.

Videocard DDC probe results
Description: Intel Corporation Intel740 Display Controller
Memory (MB): 8

Monitor DDC probe results
Monitor DDC Probe failed

This is what i got as i made the Command that you gave me

My guess is you need more memory for your video card.
How old is your system?

You could try a generic driver "vesa" instead of "i740" in your xorg.conf to see if this helps.

Make sure to choose the correct vendor and model for your monitor.

Also select 16bit instead of 24bit.

The intel i740 has 8mb of ram in it.
