Bug 230700

Well, that's sort of ATI's fault for preventing release of the R500 support
code.  Does it at least work with vesa?

No, X didn't start e next a blue screen appears with:
"
Failed to start the X server (your grafical interface). It is likely that it is
not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the
problem?
"

Next i say yes and comes a window with this:

more info please ask.
Good Luck

This should be fixed in xorg-x11-drv-vesa 1.3.0-4.  Please upgrade and test, and
reopen if this is still an issue for you.

Sorry, just to be sure that I understood perfectly -- does it mean that the bug
was still present in F7Test2? And could you tell as the version of
xorg-x11-drv-vesa package you used (output of rpm -q xorg-x11-drv-vesa), please?
