Partial Success with RC2
RC2 with ATI Radeon HD 5670 - Blank screen with either default or VESA driver. What happened to text mode install? RC2 with ATI 2600 XT (an old card) - successful install. Had to add vga cheat code to get a display on a CRT. The current ATI proprietary driver (I want my Cpmpiz!!) installs without error messages on both 32 and 64 RC2. However the result does not run X windows, and removing xorg.conf doesn't allow X to run as desired. Install did not ask for a user account. I had to add one using a console TTY and groupadd/useradd/passwd. Almost a feature, but sure to confuse novices. -- Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX N2469R c...@omen.com www.omen.com Developer of Industrial ZMODEM(Tm) for Embedded Applications Omen Technology Inc The High Reliability Software 10255 NW Old Cornelius Pass Portland OR 97231 503-614-0430 -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

Using the 2nd install option when the GUI starts doesn't work neither? Is that what you meant by vesa driver?

Try installing the mesa-dri-drivers-experimental packages as that might allow you to use compiz instead of the prop driver. Might try removing the ati prop driver first as well. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY Best lil town on Earth! -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
