Hi, in fact I am wondering that nobody else was writting here about getting a blue screen when having a ATI chipset in his notebook. I am using here a IBM Thinkpad Z61M with an ATI Radeon Mobility X1400 and at that moment anaconda should start the system boots into a blue screen. After this point the text console is also messed up. I guess that this is a problem with the chip and the tft screen and could effect several other people using an ati card on an notebook. So it looks like the problem is related to a bug reported end of april and it's dup: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=238298 (dup) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=235066 (might related) I tried several boot options so far (nofb, resolution etc), but the system stays completly unusable. I was able to perform an installation via vnc and after installation the problem remains, however I was able to logon via ssh getting access to the Xorg.0.log: [root@deimos ~]# cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER (EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable [root@deimos ~]# cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep WW (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. (WW) No monitor specified for screen "Screen0". (WW) No FontPath specified. Using compiled-in default. (WW) Open ACPI failed (/var/run/acpid.socket) (No such file or directory) (WW) VESA(0): No valid modes left. Trying less strict filter... (WW) <default pointer>: No Device specified, looking for one... Anybody with an idea how to work arround this problem, especially using a boot option in order to make F7 avaible for users that don't have a second pc. Or will the be forced to use text console? Anybody else who can confirm this problem? Best regards, Florian
Has a solution to this condition been found? I plan on installing FC7 on my Dell Inspiron with the X1400 later today. FC6 installed fine, but the current Ubuntu needed major tweaking to get a working X.
