I would guess one of two things:
1) video ram issue
2) possibly video driver issue. Did you recently change video cards or drivers.
You also may want to hookup another LCD to rule that out. I doubt that's the issue but worth a try.
Quoted from ThePostmaster:I have a simple question. I'm a Windows guy. The RFM has a Nucore in it, running Linux/ubuntu. How do I update my graphics driver? Never done it on this type of system. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
Bill
Bill,
Did you buy a nucore complete or base package and set it up yourself? Generally there's no need to update video drivers in linux like there is in windows. If it was setup properly you shouldn't ever have to update it.
Quoted from ChadTower:In your situation, once you really think it's the video card, the easiest path would be to replace it with an identical card. No software issues to deal with.
I would suggest this also. The user probably installed an arcadevga card (http://www.ultimarc.com/avgainf.html)
It's probably out of warranty but you should be able to buy a new one as a drop-in replacement.
Quoted from burningman:I just found out my monitor is shot on my RFM...picking up a 22" Samsung LCD to put in and just ordered the mounting bracket and CGA/VGA converter from LockWhenLit. Quick question, I have the Ultimarc Amp that I did not install on the current CRT. Should I install the Ultimarc video amplifier as well?
Nope.
Quoted from ThePostmaster:What's the "B"? I figure L = left, R = right. B = both? When do I do it, during a game, after the last ball, before I launch the first ball? Come on man, don't leave me hanging.....
B is both. It's two separate codes. Enter them while in attract mode.
