I have an i810 chipset of VRam. i bought a copy of RHL7 from IT.COM
bangalore. i faced similar problems as you. but in my case xwindows only
works in 8 bit mode. but then it keeps choking and then dying. after a few
reboots i cant get gnome or kde started. the entire system simply crashes.
Please can u help me?
Thanks in advance... Sukrit.D.
