[harmax]

Hi i installed the 64bit edition of fedora 7 yesterday, installation went smooth with SELinux enabled . all then went fine till the sound configuration after which i got only a blank screen to look at ( 30 min after which i switched it off)

My Laptop config : AMD Turion X2 64 bit processor with nvidia GO graphics chip with 512MB memory

Please tell in detail. Blank screen can be also due to screensaver in FC-6/7.

Sorry for the very late reply............It is not because of the screen saver......I NEVER REACHED THE GNOME DESKTOP.....coz this blank screen appears during the boot process,ie a blank screen appears instead of the login screen........and then on no key works.....is it bcos of the graphics problem?

I had the same problem with fiesty fawn......back then i dint care bcos it was jus fiesty fawn.but now even fedora 7 is giving probs......i want it running at all costs

so guys please helpe out...........

2 OSes with same problem? This means there is something wrong with your h/w.

When installing, instead of hitting enter to start the installation at the prompt, type
linux nofb
and then press enter
