OK, here is where I am (going into the weekend): I've re-installed Fedora Core 6 - partially. It has gotten to the first boot and failed (after this boot, is where you process the Firewall, SELinux, a regular User, and Sound, etc.) with a 'Out Of Range' message. Here is what I plan to do: Re-boot and modify so that it boots to run level 3 by altering the Grub process. Log on as root and run system-config-display. Using nano, update the Modes and Horiz/Vert information (Viewsonic VA550 = 1024x768 NI; Horiz: 30-62 kHz; Vert: 50-75 Hz). Make sure that the driver is vesa. Reboot and hope for Phase 2 of the install to continue. I need to verify that the following is in xorg.conf: Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" ModelName "Viewsonic VA550" HorizSync 30.0 - 62.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 75.0 Option "dpms" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "vesa" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection If someone sees anything wrong with this plan or the xorg.conf, please stop me before I start!
