Comment 1 Chris Lumens 2006-01-23 20:19:16 UTC
If the machine doesn't reboot or halt, can you switch to tty2 (alt-f2), grab the
/tmp/X.log file, and attach it to this bug report?

Comment 2 mockus 2006-01-24 01:14:11 UTC
I tried to upgrade an oldish Dell Optiplex GX110 that's now running FC3 to FC5T2,
and this is how far I got:

... Intel 82810E DC-133 cGC [Chipset Graphics Controller]
... Viewsonic P813
1...2...3...4...5.... X server started successfully
mini-wm: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on Xserver :1.0

and the tail of X.log reads:

(EE) GARTInit: Unable to open /dev/agpgart (No such device)
(EE) I810(0): AGP GART support is not available.  Make sure your kernel has
        agpgart support or that the agpgart kernel module is loaded.
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

Fatal server error:
no screens found

This is from 'fedora-test-list'. 

I will put additional comments if I grab different 
/tmp/X.log 

Comment 3 mockus 2006-01-24 05:12:25 UTC
In my case the tail of X.log reads:
(EE) GARTInit: Unable to open /dev/agpgart (No such device)

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2006-01-24 13:16:59 UTC
This is caused by the fact that agpgart wasn't included in the i586 kernel. 
This has now been resolved.
