I'm glad to see people referring to the common bugs page - yay :) However, I have to admit that's one of my more hand-wavey moments (I wrote that bit) - I was in a hurry and didn't check whether a) system-config-display is actually installed by default (it may not be, and thanks to NetworkManager, if you can't get into X, you may well not have a network connection in order to install it...) and b) whether it runs in console mode. I should probably investigate and come up with a more comprehensive, hand-holdy note. I believe running Xorg -configure as root from *outside* of X will create a /root/xorg.conf.new file which you can move to /etc/X11/xorg.conf , as an alternative method. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
