Greetings,
Ever since the nouveau driver arrived in the Fedora distribution, I have not
been able to use (or boot) my system without booting in run level 3 and loading
nVidia's proprietary drivers first. With the shipped drivers in Fedora 10 and
11, regardless of how I start X, I get the animated cursor first, then random
data spews across the screen and I lose the keyboard (but mouse still moves),
requiring a hard reset to recover.
Now, with the release of Fedora 12, the proprietary driver won't work now
(according to RedHat). However, the only option that leaves me is to boot up
with no graphics or just the vesa driver.
I have a G70 [GeForce 7800 GT] (rev a1) card that works fine (actually 2 cards
that work fine). Is there something I can do to make this card work, or
otherwise assist in making it work? Is there something odd about this card
that requires special handling? Let me know what I can provide to you to help.
Thank you in advance for your assistance,
Bruce
