Once I had been able to get to boot to runlevel 3 I was totally unable to start x doing system-config-display --reconfig (and of course system-config-display is not installed by default so you have to install it via yum after the main install!) I also saw that in this situation system-config-display --noui --reconfig should work but in my case it refused to see the graphics card at all... so in the end I decided to go back to the start and do a clean install from scratch again, but this time used the "xdriver=vesa nomodeset" kernel option both for the install, and also for firstboot - and then once firstboot was complete I added these to the grub stanza so ensure that the vesa driver was used subsequently during boot. At present it seems like there is an awful lot of breakage in the intel drivers and possibly the ATI drivers - and there is nothing more disheartening than having a system that won't offer a graphical login even if you know there are serious issues with the graphics drivers. Almost anything else you can work around since you can get to a graphical desktop and keep working on other stuff whilst you fix issues via the command line in a terminal window. By the way this is not specifically a Fedora problem - this graphics driver pain is being felt by users of other major linux distributions also - but it is certainly giving a bad smell to those who have hardware that is affected by this. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/the-ATI-proprietary-driver-and-F10-tp21361204p21372177.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
