Similar problem: Fedora 6 --> right after udev loads, the screen goes blank, and then the monitor flashes a "Video Mode Not Supported" box. Fixed by renaming /ext/X11/xorg.conf to something else, so that X uses its defaults (but max resolution is only 800 x 600). However, after an auto-update of the kernel, the mouse cursor disappeared. I put /etc/X11/xorg.conf back, but got the "Video Mode Not Supported" problem again, so I couldn't use your fix. However, by just removing the DefaultDepth line in Section "Screen" within /etc/X11/xorg.conf I got back my X screen AND my mouse cursor, and the max resolution is 1600 x 1200! -- This is an email sent via The Fedora Community Portal https://fcp.surfsite.org https://fcp.surfsite.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=168556&topic_id=27463&forum=10#forumpost168556 If you think, this is spam, please report this to webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and/or blame fedoracommunity@xxxxxxxxxxxx
