can you get the lspci -vv from this? latest F16 updates might have added support for it.

Comment 17 Martin Naď 2012-02-16 16:11:12 UTC
new package didn`t help.
I use D-Sub (my monitor CRT has only D-sub) 

on bug 733857 A S Alam says:
"Fedora 17 - DVI output correct, VGA no output on screen."

Comment 21 Ken Tobias 2012-02-25 16:48:39 UTC
A couple comments on this:

1) Isn't this fix a catch 22? If you don't have the fix, you can't install a base system from scratch; If you haven't installed a base system, you can't get the fix. Seems to me this fix would have to be pushed into the base ISO images to be of any use. Although enabling the VGA output is useful.

2) The fix DOES NOT resolve the associated issue of "blank screen after resume from suspend/hibernate". That issue seems associated with the ati driver output selection as well since the OS seems to come up normally after a resume and can be accessed from the network, the screen is just "off".
