I need help configuring the display from the shell
I installed Fedora Core 2 with the default Personal Desktop configuration.
The only problem is that when booting, my monitor displays "OUT OF SCAN RANGE" -- so I'd assume there's something wrong with it, of course.

To configure X using a program, at the console as root type
Otherwise just edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config or /etc/X11/xorg.confCode:$ xf86config OR $ xorgconfig
If you use the first or second for the above, depends on if you have XFree86 or Xorg for your X server.--monkey

Neither of those commands execute anything. Yes, I am logged in as root...
What directory may I need to cd to in order to run them?

Probably /etc/X11/bin to check do
And if that comes up with nothing replace it with xf86config.Code:$ find / -name xorgconfig 2>/dev/null
