The driver hasn't changed since then. Presumably the server's just doing something different now? Do you have X log files to compare from FC6 and F8t3? > 1) How do I test the vesa driver?

The vesa driver will be completely unaccelerated, and in particular you won't get Xv, but it might be fast enough for you depending what you're doing. - ajax -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
