Hello, I'm facing a strange problem... my machine is running FC5 on an AMD64 (Athlon 3800+), and I'm using the X server without problem when booting Fedora Kernel 2.6.16-1.blah... If I download from ftp.kernel.org a vanilla kernel (namely 2.6.16.X, and 2.6.17.x) and compile them using the configuration I'm using with my Fedora Kernel, the machine boots fine, but when I start X, the screen stays black, though it does enter a graphical mode. Then, it is not possible to have an X display, or to go back to any text console with Ctrl+Alt+Fx, I have to connect thru the network to reboot the machine. Is there something specific inside FC kernel source that could explain that ? Regards, Paul
