Hi there,
i tried to boot with the LiveCD but the Monitor always shows me "InputNotSupported"
of course after the LiveCD Menu, shortly before it would show me the desktop.
i guess it has something to do with resolution and refresh rate
i have this Monitor http://www.aoc-europe.com/no_cache/monitore.html?showUid=205
and i use it via d-sub input !
hope someone can help me

http://doc.slitaz.org/en:handbook:livecd#boot-options
screen=1920x1080x16
For slitaz 5.0 cooking/rolling:
video=1920x1080
video=1920x1080M
video=1920x1080M-16
Why 16: Some hardware works only with 24bpp and other only with 32bpp.

thanks for the quick answer !
i will try that tomorrow 
just one more thing from the handbook that worries me
"The screen=text option disables the graphical desktop & Slim login manager."
i need a grapical desktop, and a login manager would also be great

"The screen=text option disables the graphical desktop & Slim login manager."
I think you will find you still have them, , just that they are not started automatically.
Hey, so i tried 1920x1080x16, 1920x1080x24, 1920x1080x32
in the boot menu of the cd i click "Command Line" and then type "slitaz screen=1920x1080x16"
nothing changed still InputNotSupported
i have an installation of Ubunutu 14.04 which worked out of the box, just to confirm that the monitor is working with a linux distro.
my graphic card is this RV370 [Radeon X300 SE] if that helps.
ubunutu shows me that it runs at 60hz
im running slitaz 4.0 LiveCD but NOT the cooking version.

I'm thinking you just need to add screen=1920x1080x16
Radeon/ati is only supported by the VESA driver on slitaz-4.0.iso
Try some of these suggestions:
[1] Change the resolution with keyboard: ctrl+alt while tapping the keypads + and -
[2] Tab SliTaz Core Live at orange boot menu after autologin add:
screen=1024x768
Hit enter to boot
Once you get a screen fine tune the resolution: Applications/Preferences/Monitor Settings
Attempting to force vesa driver to a resolution not listed in the dropdown menu will not work.
If none of these suggestions work you have 2 choices:
Follow [2] but use screen=text which boots to the command line.
After login as root password: root
[A] Manually edit the xorg configuration files read http://doc.slitaz.org/en:guides:xorg-xvesa Configuring X
[B] Install ati driver with tazx command if your connected to the internet.
Adding screen= resolutions to kernel command line is broken on 5.0/rolling iso's

Hey, thanks for your answer
i followed the steps [1] and [2] did not work, although when i pressed CRTL+ALT+'+' the InputNotSupported went away and i saw some colorful weird lines.
so i booted in "text" mode, hit tazx pressed "install ati driver" a minute later i was back in the commandline
so i typed "X" to start the Xserver i guess, it started and the screen was just Black. There was no "InputNotSupported" just black.
so i hit CTRL+ALT+F1 to get back to command line
there was some error regarding my mircrosoft wireless keybord, and a warning regarding some KEYBOARD stuff, but nothing else.
i also looked at the xorgconfig files
the ones under /xorg.conf.d
for example 50-Monitor.conf recognized my monitor correctly
under 70-Screen.conf there where different Depths but no "Modes", so i added some to the SubSection which had "Depth" 24.
i also looked at the log file, but i didnt see obvious errors marked with (EE)
so im pretty clueless what to do next
