In the short run you can add nomodeset to your kernel options in /boot/grub/grub.conf . Recent updates for xorg-x11-drv-ati and the kernel have mostly eliminated this problem. You might want to look at bug 466663 if things are still doing this after updating. xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.9.0-62.fc10 is pending for updates and should be available as a normal update in a day or so. -- fedora-list mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
