From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.2; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko) Description of problem: I have the 1600x1200 screen and the ATI Rage Mobility M4 graphics card. During the install process on both test2 and test3 I have a weird line down the middle of the screen that has garbage in it. During the reboot after the install the during first-time configure the screen is completly messed up. IE three half copies of the screen on my monitor. I set my screen resolution to 1600x1200 reboot and X won't start. I manually edited XF86Config to try and use just the vesa driver but X still won't boot. How reproducible: Always
I had a stupid little mistake in my xorg.conf file i typed in vsea not vesa. It work now with using the vesa driver.
Fedora Core 2 test 3 does not ship with XFree86. We have replaced XFree86 with X.org X11 in test2 and later releases. The new X server is named "Xorg" and uses the config file /etc/X11/xorg.conf Please ensure your system is updated to the latest updates from rawhide, and then attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log logfile and your xorg.conf config file as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla link below, and I will review them for troubleshooting. Thanks in advance.
I forgot to mention... for the above, first run: system-config-display --reconfig Then startx with the generated config file.
I'm also seeing this problem. (Dell Inspiron 8000, ATI Rage Mobility M4, 1600x1200)... From the 'hardware' section of the display tool, I have "Dell 1600x1200 Laptop Display Panel" selected. To fix, I had to go into xorg.conf, and uncomment the lines after "### Uncomment if you don't want to default to DDC": HorizSync 31.5 - 90 VertRefresh 59.0 - 85.0 After that, it worked fine.
I had the same problem...I fixed it by manually changing the color depth from 24 to 16. Now running fine at 1400x1050.
Still having problem. I looked into the xorg.conf, but couldn't find "Uncomment if you don't wan tto default to DDC" line. Reducing color depth from 24 to 16 works, but I prefer keeping at 24. I work extensively with graphics.
This issue was resolved in the final release of Fedora Core 2. Setting status to "CURRENTRELEASE"
