I understood what you wrote. But as I pointed out in my first message on this
subject I had already specified RL3 on the kernel command line and that did
not change the behaviour. So, no I cannot get the system up to the point that
I can run anything, or at least see whatever output is created by whatever I
might be able to run.
But, as this is an experiment box I do not need a dedicated graphics card in
it. So, having been prompted the open the case to discover the make of video
card, I tried the (to me) obvious course of action to simplify things. Which
worked to the extent I require.
The removed video card looks like some sort of oem job with no obvious (to me)
brand or manufacturer markings. I cannot tell the chip maker because the
processor is covered by a fan and heat sink. It is a half-height, full-length
PCI card with a marking that looks like a V followed by two 'C's one inside
the other, followed by an I. The word TOPSEARCH is also present.
