What you're describing (screen flashes three times and then changes to text mode) is X trying to start and failing. This does probably indicate the nvidia drivers aren't loading, by being in text mode you're also seeing any other startup errors, including a different and probably unrelated error from the iwl startup. You should be able to login in text mode by pressing Ctl-Alt-F2 to get a login prompt (or try F1 through to F8 if that doesn't work). At this point there are a few things that would be useful: 1. output of the command lsmod 2. Contents of /var/log/X.0.log 3. output of rpm -qa|grep nvidia If you're not able to copy things off the system then just these instead: lsmod |grep nv lsmod |grep nouveau grep EE /var/log/X.0.log rpm -qa|grep nvidia -- imalone -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
