Hi
Have you opened YaST to reconfigure the Display settings?

Thanks for your reply.
I have opened YAST->Display Setting, but there is NO item which suitble for this Monitor.
in other collegues’s YAST Display setting, there is one item under the HPW section which is mapping with the corresponding Monitor.
So Now in my YAST, it is selected as -VESA.

Hi
Scroll the list and select LCD then the display size, else if the is a
cd with the eidd file, you can read from that.
