Ok, I think it might be a video card problem. When choosing packages during the install, if I choose to postpone X configuration, it will install. Maybe its the motherboard? BUT, when I run Xconfigurator and choose 16 or 24 bit color, X will not start up. 8 bit seems to worked fine, but now its not working again. Another tidbit, when probing for video card, Xconfigurator does a PCI probe and finds a card: nVidia card, but I have an AGP card (GeForce). Any ideas? thanks, Blake _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
