It's not graphics. The 2.6.11 kernel that comes on the FC4 install works. But, I can't accept this notebook if it won't boot newer Fedora kernels. All Fedora 2.6.14.xxx kernels won't boot. With no command line args, it stops at ACPI: Subsystem revision 20050902 If I use acpi=off it stops later. I also tried acpi=irq. All fail, but at different points! I tried the new test kernel 2.6.15-1.1823_FC4. Same result. I am trying to install FC5T1 right now.
