x log
try with radeon driver, but yes vesa should possibly work if it worked before. I booted the installer with xdriver=radeon, this got me an X display. I tried to confirm what was going on by flipping to tty2 to check the X log, and the whole screen turned white. I hit alt-f6 to go back to X/anaconda, and the CRT went into power saving! So, works, but with busted ttys. This is getting to be a theme. (See 439927 for another tty bug, but on a different kind of radeon) Close this one, and use the other bug for 'tty switching is busted on several (all?) radeons' ? (though we should probably find out why radeon isn't automatically being selected before closing this out) Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.
