Trying to install Fedora 18 on an older motherboard that has video built-in using an ATI Mach64. Install seemed to go thru fine, and login screen is fine, but then after logging in I got the top bar and side ICONs seem to work fine, but if background image seems to be half width, and magenta. Can bring up system settings, and then display, but have to use keys since the mouse position isn't matching. Screen is showing as LAPTOP, and it originally shows a 2000+ x 1024 screen, but then options only showed 1024x768 and 800x400. Selecting either and applying gives the box if image is ok, but it is diagonal? Found that the xorg driver for mach64 was not installed, so installed it. No difference. Ran Xorg -configure, which I had tried earlier, but it only came up with a 640x480 screen. This time, the little round icon comes up in the lower right corner a few times, and then machine completely locks and requires a hard power off. Motherboard doesn't have agp slots, so putting a different video card isn't really an option. Have tried using vnc to connect, but it is just coming up with an OPPS screen. Thanks. +----------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.
