I enclose my Xorg.0.log file, which looks OK. In fact it shows > that it is detecting 1440x900 but the display is definitely stretched. Further info: I booted the F9 Live CD and the display was configured correctly. Turns out there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf and X just uses an internal default. So I removed xorg.conf in my Preview setup to see what would happen. It still failed in the same way. I notice that when the display goes black there is apparently a desktop still there. The cursor changes shape (arrow or I-beam) according to where it is on the screen. I just can't see anything except the cursor. poc This is now filed at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=443546 -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
