When I start X, there's a big green box on the screen and my box crashes. What is this?

Linux Gamers' FAQ
This is due to rivafb being compiled into your kernel. The nvidia driver is not compatible with rivafb. You'll need to recompile your kernel without rivafb. The rivafb option can be found in the Console Drivers -> Frame Buffer Support section of the kernel config. Alternatively, if you can just pass the kernel the option video=rivafb:off, you won't need to recompile your kernel. Add the following line to /etc/lilo.conf, then run /sbin/lilo as root: append="video=rivafb:off"

Why can't I remove the black belts or letter box view on the top and bottom of the screen?

Initial Technology, Inc.
The DVD player has the capability to view movies in three formats: wide screen, LB-letter box (black belts) or PS-Pan Scan. Depending on the DVD movie you have, you may or may not be able to modify the settings. Not all DVD movies allow you to change the settings to all three viewing modes. The majority of movies are manufactured in letter box (black belts) view and will not allow you to alter the viewing settings. Again, it depends on the DVD software and not the DVD player.

How big is a box?

SOS - Secure On-Site Shredding - Serving Florida Since 1994
big as it wants to be as long as it has six sides. All kidding aside, we try to convert customer volume estimates into a standard 12X15/12X24 box in order to determine the price estimate as well as when we have time in our schedule to do the job. A standard 12X15/12X24 box is the width of a letter file and the length of a legal file. A copy paper box is 125% of the size of a 12X15/12X24 box. Some file boxes are the size of a filing cabinet drawer.

Rebel Cycles
Very large. The bikes ship partially assembled, and so the box is usually very long. It won't fit in most cars, you'll need a van or truck to transport it. For example, the Ghost box is 76" long, and the Trike box is about a foot shorter.
