Hey guys,
 
I’ve installed fedora on an old laptop however the monitor wasn’t
recognized by the installer so I selected just a generic 800x 600
monitor. Unfortunately, when I boot the machine I get an error message
‘cannot open virtual console 7’  and the system tries to redetect my
monitor.  I know my monitor is a Display Assy, SVGA, 12.1” CTFT does
anyone know of a monitor type close to it that will work. 
 
Many thanks
 
GM
