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.

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.
