Part I ✦ SUSE Linux Basics
Configuring Your Hardware
When you have read the release notes, click Next and you will be asked to configure
your hardware (see Figure 1-30). The YaST installer and the YaST system configura-
tion manager runs the same modules to configure hardware. For now you will con-
figure the video card so that you can use X/KDE/GNOME.
YaST in SUSE 10 has changed the way it detects your graphics capabilities. YaST will
automatically sense what your current configuration is and will then allow you to
change those individual settings.
Configuring Your Monitor
To change your monitor configuration from what YaST detected, click on the moni-
tor listed under “Graphics Cards.” You will be presented with a list of available mon-
itors from which you can choose (see Figure 1-31).
