List,
Below I have attached an excerpt of dmesg from the other night. Of
particular interest is the messages from X about an illegal attempt to
access hardware.
I left my machine with the desktop locked and was doing other things. I
returned and found a login screen. I tried to log back in

I forgot to mention the video card is an ATI Radeon Mobility LY (AGP). I've tried the
generic Radeon driver, the Radeon Mobility driver, and the Radeon Mobility
what_ever_it_is driver.
I've run a search in google for Mandrake and radeon mobility ly and came up with
only one hit that was close
Make sure you have the 75dpi fonts installed.

Hi Victor:
I had a simular cituation. I have an IBM Aptiva. I installed the
Mandrake 7.0 several times and when it came to X my system froze up. The only
way I got around this was to install Mandrake 7.0 as and upgrade. After that
X configured I''m able to readjust my monitor rate now.
That makes the most sense, thanks I'll try it out after dinner and let
you know.

At the lilo prompt:

log in as root and change /etc/inittab to go init 3 (Read this file, it is
interesting)
Sounds like you are converting an old Compaq. I have one I use as a file
server. Works much better in Linux. Major crash every 3 months under
Windoze.
Hasn't crashed yet

Thanks for suggestions, but I tried pressing both at different times in the
boot process, but it did nothing. Exactly when during the boot should I be
pressing it? Unfortunately, the screen locks up and goes black just as the
screen shows the Mandrake logo and the login prompt, so I can't do

Why don't you boot from the CD do an upgrade and just install KDE and X.
So do not format your partitions.
