hello

i just installed fedora 6.

i start the system... when i saw the writing

`wellcome to fedora core`
`udev starting`

then my monitor closed -not closed but blank black screen comes-- and
a message `sync. out of range`

my graphic card is radeon x1800xt and monitor is samsung syncmaster

what should i do ?

Are you using runlevel 5? If so, I would suggest switching
to runlevel 3 at least until you get the system tuned and
fully working. (I _never_ use runlevel 5, always using
runlevel 3.)

Boot a Live CD, or boot an installation CD and get to a
shell. Then, edit file /etc/inittab, find the "initdefault"
line, and change the '5' to a '3'.
