Seen here too after rebooting post installation of xorg-x11 version FC4.48.1 packages. OK on reverting to... xorg-x11-Mesa-libGLU-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-twm-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-Mesa-libGL-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-font-utils-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-xfs-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-tools-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-xauth-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 xorg-x11-devel-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 The screen tries to go into graphical login prompt but shows a repeated pattern on screen. Computer responses to CRTL-ALT-DEL but CTRL-ALT-Fx for virtual terminals doesn't work. Workaround: 1. Boot computer to text mode (runlevel 3 or single user mode). 2. Locate previous versions of xorg-x11-* (try /var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages) 3. Install these with rpm --force -U <package names> 4. Reboot and x should restore OK. Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller. PC is a Dell. I haven't figured out exactly what package caused the problem because I can't afford to have the box down for any length of time. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 168750 *** bug 168750: beta rpms for FC3 http://people.redhat.com/krh/xorg-x11/fc3 helps fix the problem. Workaround: 1. Boot computer to text mode (runlevel 3, you need network) 2. Install: rpm --nodebs -U http://people.redhat.com/krh/xorg-x11/fc3/xorg-x11-... all rpms one by one 3. Reboot into Linux in Graphical mode |
