Try just 'vesa'...aside from that, can you replace the card, boot the installed system to runlevel 3, run 'startx' and see what happens? Assuming it hangs, reboot to runlevel 3 again and take a copy of /var/log/Xorg.0.log before doing whatever you need to do to get graphics back, so we can see the log of a failed attempt to start X and try and figure out what's wrong. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
