New Linux install. Can't get past the anaconda startup in graphical install. Last prompt in session one: "Waiting for X server to start." Session seven has switched to an unviewable video mode -- invalid scan rate. (The monitor is quite capable of anything reasonable -- all the way up to 1600x1200 @80 Hz.) Applied the anaconda 20001009 update and had same results. If install using text mode, I have no problem, but would like to use X, so I am looking for a solution! Hardware: P3-733, 128MB, Diamond V330 4MB Video card, 20Gig Maxtor HD, Netgear NIC.
Please attach the output from the lspci command. Also - does X work if you configure it with the Xconfigurator command?
also, are you able to perform a text install ... (as a workaround :) ) ...?

Text install works fine. Not able to start Xconfigurator, as the text install does not seem to have installed the necessary packages. Any guidance towards configuring X manually would be appreciated.
Could you also attach the output from 'lspci -n' please?

Assigning to developer to integrate new PCI info.
it's in the pcitable; sounds like an X issue.
