The latest version of Gnome does not give the gnome login prompt. Only a black screen.
My GPU is the legacy ATI Radeon Mobility 9600/M10.
So, I have no idea if the problem is with Gnome 3, or with the latest X driver for my chipset.

Have you ever tried to find out why? Part of the testing every new
I know part of the reason.
Long before the struggle is over,
I feel more like killing something than
writing down what, if anything, I learned.
The result is that the next install doesn't go any better than the previous.
Usually, I do get an install,
but there is a lot of "Oh crap, why doesn't that work?".
Of course, by the time I get that working, I don't
know most of what I've done to make it work.
All that said, I think it might be useful to
have my printer turned on during the install.
version of Fedora is supposed to go through is making sure that it will install correctly on as many different configurations as possible. Why is your machine different from all of the machines used for testing, and is there anything that can be done to get installations to work right the first time?
