Hi All Folks,

Thanks for your advice.

Problem is now solved.

I use GRUB.  The PC boots automatically leaving me no way to input any 
command.  It stops at Login screen, I suppose, because I could not read a 
vibrating white threads screen.  Crtl + Alt +F2 switch the screen to TEXT 
MODE.  From there I execute "Xconfigurator".  That is all.

My aged monitor supports 24 bit colour depth and a resolution of 800x600 max.

Stephen
