Well, here's the results: the screen still goes black (and, according to the monitor itself) and goes into power save mode when it should be starting X. For kicks I tried rebooting WITHOUT doing the initramfs/dracut stuff. Things did not go any different than they do when I actually follow the correct instructions. One interesting observation: I am doing "rdblacklist=nouveau" and I do not even seem to have the "nouveau" driver running? my xorg.conf says "Driver "vesa"" Perhaps retrying AFTER WORK, and doing "rdblacklist=vesa"? Anyway, I NEED to get to work. Steven P.
