I get the same thing as the original poster. System is Toshiba Satelitte 1405-S151 [kevin@mikachan ~]$ /sbin/lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: ALi Corporation M1644/M1644T Northbridge+Trident (rev 01) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation PCI to AGP Controller 00:02.0 USB Controller: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller (rev 03) 00:04.0 IDE interface: ALi Corporation M5229 IDE (rev c3) 00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5451 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 01) 00:07.0 ISA bridge: ALi Corporation M1533 PCI to ISA Bridge [Aladdin IV] 00:08.0 Bridge: ALi Corporation M7101 Power Management Controller [PMU] 00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82551QM Ethernet Controller (rev 10) 00:11.0 CardBus bridge: Toshiba America Info Systems ToPIC100 PCI to Cardbus Bridge with ZV Support (rev 32) 00:11.1 CardBus bridge: Toshiba America Info Systems ToPIC100 PCI to Cardbus Bridge with ZV Support (rev 32) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Trident Microsystems CyberBlade XPAi1 (rev 82) [kevin@mikachan ~]$ Just to confirm; the issue is not present in xorg-x11-6.8.2-1.FC3.13 (the latest FC3 version) as I have had to downgrade to run X on fc4. I too have the same exact problem, on a Toshiba Satellite 1805-S274. Fedora Core 1 worked fine, but I haven't tried 2 or 3 because my CD-ROM drive is broken and I only now have gone to the trouble of installing via other methods. 00:00.0 Host bridge: ALi Corporation M1644/M1644T Northbridge+Trident (rev 01) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation PCI to AGP Controller 00:02.0 USB Controller: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller (rev 03) 00:04.0 IDE interface: ALi Corporation M5229 IDE (rev c3) 00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5451 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 01) 00:07.0 ISA bridge: ALi Corporation M1533 PCI to ISA Bridge [Aladdin IV] 00:08.0 Bridge: ALi Corporation M7101 Power Management Controller [PMU] 00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0d) 00:11.0 CardBus bridge: Toshiba America Info Systems ToPIC100 PCI to Cardbus Bridge with ZV Support (rev 32) 00:11.1 CardBus bridge: Toshiba America Info Systems ToPIC100 PCI to Cardbus Bridge with ZV Support (rev 32) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Trident Microsystems CyberBlade XPAi1 (rev 82) 06:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): NEC Corporation IEEE 1394 [OrangeLink] Host Controller (rev 03) I have the EXACT same problem. My system is: Hardware: Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook C Series C-6135 Graphics card: Trident Cyber 9525 Mouse: Synaptics Touchpad Fedora Core 3 had NO problems installing on this laptop. Same problem using Trident Cyber 9525 (rev 73) on a Fujitsu Lifebook S4542. Again, no problems with Fedora's 1,2,3. Now X whites out the whole display. Also doesn't seem to be a new upstream version relative to FC3, so what's up with the patches to the package? Has some regression bug slipped in? This is most frustrating to have a perfectly good X setup gone south. I have tried the "switch to CRT" and back again "trick", but it doesn't work for me. Anything, even a hacky workaround would be gratefully appreciated... This appears to be a duplicate of bug #151688. It appears to be an upstream error in xorg, the upstream bug is: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2976. The workaround of replacing the "trident" driver with "vesa" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf listed in comment #7 of the freedesktop bug appears to work for me. Apparently 6.8.2-37 package included in FC4 includes patches from the xorg CVS, so it isn't really the same version of xorg as included in FC3. Please review bug #161242 everyone, and try using the libvgahw.a module that is linked to from that bug report. This is just a hunch I'd like to test to see if the problem reported on Matrox and Intel hardware is also causing problems on Trident and other hardware. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=161242 Anyone who can test this and provide feedback, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. (In reply to comment #9) > Please review libvgahw everyone, and try using the libvgahw.a module > that is linked to from that bug report.

Thanks guys for confirming my suspicions! We're edging closer now... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 161242 *** |
