Grafisk konfiguration

Konfigurera grafikkort och bildskärm

No matter which graphical environment (also known as desktop environment) you chose for this install of Mageia, they are all based on a graphical user interface system called X Window System, or simply ”X”. So in order for KDE Plasma, GNOME, LXDE or any other graphical environment to work well, the following ”X” settings need to be correct.

Choose the appropriate settings manually if you think the details are incorrect, or if none are shown.

  • Grafikkort

    If you need to, you can select a specific card from this expandable list. See ”Välj en X-server (konfigurera ditt grafikkort)”.

  • Skärm

    You can choose Plug 'n Play, if applicable, or choose your monitor from the Vendor or Generic lists. Choose Custom if you prefer to manually set the horizontal and vertical refresh rates of your monitor. See ”Att välja din bildskärm”.

  • Upplösning

    The resolution and color depth of your monitor can be set here.

  • Prova

    The test button does not always appear during install. If the option is there, and you test your settings, you should be asked to confirm that your settings are correct. If you answer Yes, the settings will be kept. If you don't see anything, you'll return to the configuration screen and be able to reconfigure everything until the test result is satisfactory. If the test option is not available, then make sure your settings are on the safe side.

  • Alternativ

    Här kan du välja att aktivera eller inaktivera olika alternativ.

[Varning]

There is a risk of damaging a monitor if you choose refresh rates that are outside the frequency range of that monitor. This applies to older CRT displays: modern monitors will reject an unsupported frequency and normally enter standby mode.

Välj en X-server (konfigurera ditt grafikkort)

DrakX har en väldigt omfattande databas av grafikkort och identifierar oftast ditt nuvarande grafikkort korrekt.

Om installationen inte har upptäckt ditt grafikkort korrekt och du vet vilket du har så kan du välja det från trädet genom:

  • Tillverkare

  • then the make of your card

  • and the model of card

If you cannot find your card in the vendor lists (because it's not yet in the database or it's an older card) you may find a suitable driver in the Xorg category, which provides more than 40 generic and open source video card drivers. If you still can't find a specific driver for your card there is the option of using the VESA driver which provides basic capabilities.

[Observera]

Be aware that if you select an incompatible driver you may only have access to the Command Line Interface

Some video card manufacturers provide proprietary drivers for Linux which may only be available in the Nonfree repository and in some cases only from the card manufacturers' websites. The Nonfree repository needs to be explicitly enabled to access them. If you didn't enable it previously, you should do this after your first reboot.

[Varning]

Selecting a monitor with different characteristics could damage your monitor or video hardware. Please don't try something without knowing what you are doing. If in doubt you should consult your monitor documentation.

Anpassad

This option allows you to set two critical parameters: the vertical refresh rate and the horizontal sync rate. Vertical refresh determines how often the screen is refreshed and horizontal sync is the rate at which scan lines are displayed.

Det är VÄLDIGT VIKTIGT att du inte anger en skärmtyp med ett synkroniseringsintervall som är över kapaciteten för din bildskärm, då kan du skada den. Om du är osäker så välj en försiktig inställning och läs dokumentationen för din bildskärm.

Plug'n Play

This is the default option and automatically tries to determine the monitor type from the monitor database.

Tillverkare

Om installationen inte har upptäckt din bildskärm och du vet vilken du har så kan du välja den från trädet genom att välja:

  • Tillverkare

  • Monitor model

Allmänna

Selecting this group will list nearly 30 display configurations such as 1024x768 @ 60Hz and includes flat-panel displays as used in laptops. This is often a good monitor selection group if you need to use the VESA card driver when your video hardware cannot be determined automatically. Once again it may be wise to be conservative in your selections.
