My video device is Radeon - AMD/ATI M52 [Mobility Radeon X1300] I didn't install any non-Fedora driver for this. Maybe I should? The video modules mentioned in lsmod are: -------------------------- i2c_algo_bit 13066 1 radeon drm_kms_helper 43551 1 radeon ttm 62706 1 radeon yenta_socket 40363 0 drm 216715 5 ttm,drm_kms_helper,radeon i2c_core 28450 5 drm,i2c_i801,drm_kms_helper,i2c_algo_bit,radeon e1000e 213483 0 video 18552 0 sunrpc 215745 1 -------------------------- I re-installed Fedora-18, and this got rid of all the problems except for this flashing screen at boot-time. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin -- 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?
