Hello Ismail
It sounds to me like you are describing a frame buffer problem in that
fedora is not able to adequately control your video card. This in my
experience is not uncommon with intel video, however Fedora (so far)
seems better than any other distro I've tried.
you could try using a kernel parameter to change the FB settings. this
is done by adding 'vga=xxx' to the kernel parameters line of your
grub.conf file. the 'xxx' needs to be replaced by one of the values in
the following table:
colour depth | 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024
256 (8bit) | 769 771 773
775
32000 (15bit) | 784 787 790 793
65000 (16bit) | 785 788 791 794
16.7 Mill. (24bit) | 786 789 792 795
This should only affect the display you see when fedora is booting, or
when you use the Ctrl-Alt-(F1-F6) or run level 3 (these are usually
referred to as TTY1-TTY6) and possibly won't solve your problem (I
have had a machine similar to yours for 2 weeks and I haven't noticed
a problem as severe as yours I tried many boot CDs that would not work
though the FC6 liveCD works well and I have not yet installed FC on
that machine).
I hope this helps you
Scott
