Subject: Fedora 9 Freeze At Login
So I've put in Fedora 9 just the other day, but it doesn't matter
when
I login into Fedora 9 after booting up into it, that everything
freezes once the login screen goes away after entering my username
and
password. I'm not sure what I'm suppose to do to get this working.
Likely a device driver is causing this. The good news is that since
it's so easy to reproduce you should be able to identify the driver,
disable it and then start the usual hardware troubleshooting steps
( new driver, new firmware and so on ). I recommend booting up,
then chvt 1 and wait for the crash to happen and see if the output
on the screen shows the problem.
I had a similar problem with my wireless card connecting to WPA
cards recently. I simply disable wireless at boot time in the BIOS
to see if that was the problem. Once I confirmed this I updated
firmware and drivers and the problem went away.
Good luck.

Okay. I can see what I can try to do with that. What are some good
device drivers to try disabling first? I'm not all that comfortable in
the BIOS, so I don't want to screw anything up.
