Hi , The Monitor is set correctly and the on-board video chipset is picked up correctly as Nvida GForce4 MX (generic). (1) After running Yum, I could not boot at all. Screen freezes on bootup (2) Reinstalled original FC distribution (3) tried tp run system-config-display, the graphical mode crashes the machine (4) In non=graphical mode played around with some settings , although not 100% sure what to change Tried changing the screen resolution, but did not know the name of alternate drivers to try etc ... Any more suggestions, most welcome !

Sounds like a video problem, driver or monitor. Try running system-config-display and make sure the right video card and monitor are selected and see if that works. If above doesn't work, try running the command "setup" and go to X configuration and see if you can do it there. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "Everything is always harder, before it's easier! -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
