Picture of screen resolution problem.
This seems to work ok with my other videocard, is it just time to retire my Matrox Millenium board at this time? What are the results if you run /usr/sbin/ddcprobe as root? It seems that the firstboot is ok if you just press ctrl+alt+f1 to go to text mode and then switch back to X with ctrl+alt+f8 (after this everything is visible as should be). I don't know what happened with the command you suggested [/usr/sbin/ddcprobe], my monitor went out of scan range. My monitor also goes out of scan range temporarily when the fedora X installing system first boots (I don't think this happens with the FC4 release version). Can you please attach /tmp/XConfig.test and /tmp/X.log to this bug report? These two files should be written out by firstboot and I don't think they get cleaned up so they should still be around.

Maby this is what you asked for
Unfortunately I was unable to find the files in /tmp so I attached the only file that seemed even close in /var/log/ Try a text mode installation, and then do a system update to the latest packages with yum. Once you're fully updated, run: system-config-display --reconfig Then examine /etc/X11/xorg.conf and if it is not configured to use the "mga" driver, change it to that, and try to start X. Update the report with the results you obtain, and attach the X server log file from /var/log, and the config file as individual uncompressed file attachments, and we'll continue diagnosing the problem. Thanks in advance. I didn't see any of these problems with FC5test2. Would you sitll like to have this information about test1? (In reply to comment #9) > I didn't see any of these problems with FC5test2. Would you sitll like to have > this information about test1? Ah, cool. Naw, if it's not happening in FC5test2, then that's a good indication the problem got fixed along the way. I'll close this as fixed in "RAWHIDE" for now, but if the problem recurs, please reopen it and we'll look at it again. Thanks for the update. |
