在虚拟机上安装 RedHat Linux AS4.0 后,由于视频配置时选择颜色深度太高,把 16 位色配置为 24 位色,导致打开图形界面时出现花屏,屏幕宽度非常大,严重变形,不能操作。
既然是显卡配置部分出现问题,就必须修改该部分的配置信息。在这种情况下,这些应该进入单用户模式下完成:
首先重新启动机器,在出现 grub 后,按字母“e”,然后会出现 grub 的配置文件,再按键盘移动光标到第二行“Kernal……”,再按“e”,然后在编辑界面输入 single,回车。然后按“b”重启,就进入了“单用户模式”。
进入后在提示符 # 后敲入:vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf,然后会打开这个视频配置文件,再输入“/Screen”(注意S是大写)检索到 Screen 部分,会显示相关的配置的地方。
然后您按“i”键进入Vi编辑器的插入模式,把光标移动到“24”的位置,把这里的 24 改为 16,然后按 ESC 键返回命令模式,按冒号“:”,输入 wq,回车,保存、退出。键入 reboot 命令,回车,重新启动,图形界面就出来了!
以下是一个正确的 xorg.conf 文件的内容:
# XFree86 4 configuration created by pyxf86config
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Section "Files"
# RgbPath is the location of the RGB database. Note, this is the name of the
# file minus the extension (like ".txt" or ".db"). There is normally
# no need to change the default.
# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.
RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
FontPath "unix/:7100"
EndSection
Section "Module"
Load "dbe"
Load "extmod"
Load "fbdevhw"

Section "InputDevice"
# 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"
#
Identifier "Keyboard0"

Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"

注意以上的 Section "Screen"……EndSection 部分,正是我们需要关心的地方。在实际中笔者发现,DefaultDepth 16 莫名其妙的变为了 DefaultDepth 16161616161616161616。SubSection "Display" 部分的两个 16 都变为了 24,需要全部变回来。这里表明是有 2 个显示器的情况。
笔者对照 Redhat Linux 9.0 的情况,发现视频配置文件不是 /etc/X11/xorg.conf,而是 /etc/X11/XF86Config(注意文件名的大小写),这个大家必须注意。XF86Config 的 Section "Screen"……EndSection部分也不同,如下所示,应该和机器的硬件配置有关系:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
