Hi everybody,
Forgive the question, but I had some problems with the installation of the Core 6 of Fedora. I tried to install it on a AMD64 with an ATI X700SE. If I choose the "text mode" there are no problems until the firt reboot. When the PC restart I get an "Out of range" during the start-up of the Graphical interface and I can't complete the installation. Does anybody can help me? Please!
I am still using FC4 and have not installed 6 yet so I am interested in knowing more. Where were you given the choice of 'text mode'? During installation? Then it likely did not install graphics programs. Just a guess.

Well, at the beginning of the installation (just in the first startup where you are prompted to insert any parameter, like the screen resolution, etc...), It asks for a that choice. I've typed "linux text" and the rest of the installation has proceeded in text mode, but this it doesn't mean that the graphical programs won't be installed on your machine. I hope to have answered you in the best way and forgive for my "macaroni" English.

You are correct in that it would install the graphics programs. I never tried just a text mode installation but if it was that question it has nothing to do with what is installed. And that means I have no idea what the problem is.

The first thing to try is a reinstall. That worked for me once for some odd problem I forget. This time install it in the graphics mode and that will test that the distribution can use the graphics mode of your machine. Do I correctly assume it has worked with Windows and therefore you know the graphics hardware is working correctly?

English is one of the most forgiving languages in the world. You should not worry about it. I have understood all but the worst English and then it only took explaining the possible meanings of the questionable part to get a clarification.

Your English is fine. The only thing is your apologetic tone with forgive and please. Those are not part of common English. The Brits think us Americans are blunt but even they do not use such terms.
