Re: Giving Up On Fedora



Here is the link of thread for Nvidia card. That issues in un resolved.
As I stated Fedora has failed on both machines, one with Nvidia card

That's not much info to comment on :(, just from two weeks ago, and you
haven't answered to the last reply yet either.

I tried the suggestion but the screen was stuck at the same message.

Readers would have to apply a *lot* of guess-work. Have the proprietary
Nvidia drivers worked for you every before with Fedora?

I can't say as when 16 was released I installed it on my PC and it worked for almost a week. Once the error came, it was belived Fedora Utils caused it. I reformatted and did not install Fedora Utils, still it was stuck after second reboot.

I can do a fresh install once again if that may help.

With older
versions of Fedora? I don't use those drivers. If you use the RPM Fusion
packages for those drivers, perhaps you can get help on RPM Fusion's
mailing-list(s) - provided that you don't give up early and don't expect
magic incantations to do all the work. ;)

I am not giving up but since I can't even boot into the system I can't do anything for my work and have to use openSUSE for my work -- which I am happy with, but need Fedora for my articles.

It may be necessary to collect
details about the current state of your system and about all steps you try
out when testing something. Terse postings (containing no details) won't
lead to anything.

I understand, I will keep it posted.


You also wrote "I tried Fedora 16 and loved it" before installing the
proprietary nvidia drivers.

As I stated above, it worked fine with Nvidia drives for a week.


And this is a snap of the error on Dell XPS.

Where is an error message in there? All is about USB. :(
Yes. This is where the screen is stuck and I can't boot into system.
