I'm trying to run the Live-CD in an HP GX280 desk top.

It works until it tries to bring up the X display and I get an "Out of 
Range" error message on the CRT.

I tried it in a different computer the other day and I was able to get 
it to run vesa but apparently I don't have the right command.

At the boot prompt I tried  "linux vesa" to no avail.

A can do ctrl+alt+f2 and get a text screen but I can't run 
system-config-display as it stands either, it tries to bring up X and fails.

What can I do?

Bob
