ok... so you're saying that something is going on regarding the lan, and that when you attempt to fire up the lan, you're not getting the fc9 to bring up the text login/gui? is this with a straight wire lan, or wireless connection? are you using any other networking function like networkmanager, or just the traditional system-network-config? -----Original Message----- From: sam Ruma [mailto:asu_mcs@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, November 10, 2008 6:44 PM To: bruce Cc: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: install Fedora 9 on Toshiba Satellite A305-S6825 It is not just a black screen I will copy the screen and e-mail it to you The DVD is valid.

Disabled built in LAN in the setup. 2. Installed Fedora 9 on Toshiba Satellite A305-S6825. 3. Went back and enable the built in LAN in the setup to get the ethernet card to works. The problem when I start the computer I get the black screen and Fedora doesn?t load. And if I disable the built in LAN I don?t get network device in my machine.
