Description of Problem: After installing the ArkLinux 10 Alpha 6 distribution 
to my evaluation system, I was not able to start the system. The installation 
completed properly. However, when X Windows starts, my monitor screen goes 
blank, and the power LED turns amber, but stays on. This is a indication that 
shows that the monitor does detect a video signal, but the signal is not in the 
range of resolutions/refresh rates that the monitor can display.
The video card in the system is a Diamond Viper 330 (NV Riva 128) and the 
monitor is a Techmedia 14".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How Reproducible: 100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Arklinux on system.
2. Reboot.
3.

Actual Results:
No display
Expected Results:
Display
Additional Information:
Are there any command line parameters that can be passed to Arklinux to 
configure the diplay settings, such as the ones used it Knoppix Linux? 
Otherwise, is there an easy way to coorect this besides logging in at a console 
and going through XF86 setup, etc? 
Thanks.
