"Input Signal Out Of Range" on some distros, no problem on W7
by knet from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5KTSS)
Hello forum, I have asked earlier on Linux-General. This is probably a hardware compatibility issue so here i am. Well since i added a dedicated graphics card to my setup I am now unable to run linux smoothly. I can install them but I am experiencing "Input Signal Out of Range" as i'm expecting X to came up. If i remember correctly only Porteus Mate 3.2.2, Slacko7.0 and Ubuntu 20.04.2.0 (safe graphics) live usb booted without the error. Before the upgrade i can install and operate fine on both Buster and Slackware 14.2. As of now i am stuck with windows 7 as my main driver with several linux guest oses. But i really want to switch now asap.:)
