Thanks Andy, for replying. nothing EE errors in the logs. Xorg.conf is very small and simple, does contain this section: Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "nv" the Xorg,0,log does have references to finding my card, an Nvidia made 5200, it's mentioned. Sheesh, my Linux skills are rusty. On the other hand, I'm still typing "ls -ltra" at the DOS prompt in windows, so I guess it hasn't all faded away. -- This is an email sent via The Fedora Community Portal https://fcp.surfsite.org https://fcp.surfsite.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=190153&topic_id=41819&forum=10#forumpost190153 If you think, this is spam, please report this to webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and/or blame tmoble@xxxxxxxxxx
