Description of problem: The default video driver on the F9 Beta GNOME/KDE Live CDs used for the Radeon 3870 does not work. 'radeon_tp' is selected by default but X will not start with this driver. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 9 Beta Live CDs How reproducible: Endlessly Steps to Reproduce: 1. Burn a CD of the GNOME or KDE beta live CD image. 2. Boot from the CD. 3. Wait through graphical boot. Actual results: After watching the graphical boot, user is dumped to console. GDM appears to try to start X and fails. Starting X manually results in an error. Xorg.0.log states that the module 'radeontp' could not be found. Expected results: User should be taken straight to the respective login manager. X should start normally and without error. Additional info: Switching default driver to 'ati' in Xorg.conf allows X to start normally. I plan on installing to the hard drive from the F9 install DVD to test that as well.
