Do you know where I can check what > the current settings are? Could check your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and see what driver is being used. If need be, can try changing it to the "vesa" driver and see if that at least gives you a working X desktop. If you do get a working desktop, you can run system-config-display to try getting the proper driver/monitor selected if not already done. You can also maybe boot to run level 3 if it allows you, and maybe update your computer first, then try changing the xorg.conf driver back to intel or whatever it is and do a reboot and see if the updates help. Or you may even just delete your xorg.conf file after the updates and see if x picks it up this time. -- Mike Chambers Fedora Project - Ambassador, Bug Zapper, Tester, User, etc.. mikec302@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
