Gentlemen: I have just installed fedora core 3 on an Intel i810 motherboard where fedora core2 was working previously. I seem to have fubar'ed the display settings as I get a bunch of vertical lines after the KDE window manager boots. The system displays correctly during some boot screens, somewhat inconsistently. For instance, I was able to fill out the firstboot screens including setting the display to 1600x1200 and "thousands of colors" (16bit). I suspect that I merely need to incantate inside the XF86-config file, but I cannot seem to get a terminal window without X. Alt-Ctrl-F1 doesnt work anymore on this particular system, and I dont remember how to tell grub how to boot to run level 1 or 3. Can someone offer me a suggestion or two out of my dilemna? Charles
