Hi Edward,

Anybody have this combination working?

I've referred to Linux On Laptops, and done a general google search, but nothing has worked for me.

With the initial detected settings, I simply get a white screen, and switching back to text console has a corrupted screen.

With vga=791 and vesa settings I've acquired from my fruitless searches, I get a total notebook re-boot after the screen blanks.

Where do I look next to get Fedora Core 4 to work in graphics mode on this aging laptop?


according to the Xorg documentation
http://x.org/X11R6.8.2/doc/trident.4.html the Trident Cyberblade/XP is
supported.

Regards,
Ed.

P.S. It may be aging, but it booted up pretty fast...

Thanks Alex, yes, I do know that. The X.Org site was implied when I said I'd scoured the net.

In short - I should work but doesn't - has anybody got a working configuration like this?

I should also mention I had to do a text install. Graphics did not work on install either.

Regards,
Ed.
