At the first reboot, it started as it should, but was a bit slow in graphics. I solved some problems with yum using FC4 repos, and the entire machine is now updated (Except for an old known problem on gstreamer). The problem is, that the X server won't start. I have tried the following: 1. boot to runlevel 3, and run "system-config-display "couldn't start X server on Card 0" 2. boot to runlevel 3, and run "startx" "couldn't start X server on Card 0" 3. removed xorg-x11-server-Xorg and all related packages,and reinstalled it all Still same result as 1 & 2. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong - I am desperate? Mikael You did not state what make of graphics adapter that you have installed. There are problems with the as shipped kernel and drivers for both Nvidia and ATI. You need to upgrade if you have either type of adapter. OK. Any suggestions to a website or a yum package? I have a feeling, that a have crawled through it all MikaelThere are lots of updates since FC5 was released. You can do an update of everything that you have installed or just an update of the kernel and xorg.. I have installed the latest kernel (2.6.16-1.2096_FC5) I have installed the latest NVIDIA driver (NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8756) All I get is a black screen, with a blinking dash in the top left corner, and a big white mousecursor. I have even tried to reinstall without any luck Any ideas are welcome Mikael |
