I have a machine with a old Tyan S2885 MB. I had the x86_64 version of
Fedora 9 loaded on it. I boot the machine to run level 3. I recently
started noticing problems with the video card when I would use startx to
get into GNOME. Symptoms included stray pixels left set to funny values
when moving windows around...
I stupidly left this graphics card in the machine when I used an x86_64
DVD to upgrade the machine. The install died after loading
approximately 750 of approximately 900 packages. It just froze. I
restarted the install. It appeared to pick up where it left off by
installing about 150 packages.
After fixing the grub problem I rebooted to find the machine is using a
Fedora 10 kernel, but the majority of the packages on the machine are
for Fedora 9. When I run you update there are dependency problems due
to the odd configuration.
Is there anything I can do to work around this?
TIA,
Pete
