<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for the comments... I'm using the basic
xorg.conf file, but keep in mind that I CAN manually start X from within
rescue mode. The only errors I can see are in Xorg.0.log and
Xorg.setup.log:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> (EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI
capable<BR> Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from
list!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Does anyone know what this error means? or if this is what's causing my
system to hang?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>After the installation the system reboots so that setup can continue, this
is where I'm having the problem.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>

clear=all>Generally, X crashes either because of mouse or video configuration.
<BR>FC6 uses a minimalist xorg.conf by default, and loads everything
automatically.<BR>If it works, good, otherwise you have to change it.<BR>I
would boot using any live distribution not based on xorg 7.1<BR>(FC5,
systemrescue-cd, knoppix, etc...) <BR>and try to change xorg.conf. <BR>If you
use a LCD, do not connect it using a VGA port. Preferably,<BR>use a real CRT
while fixing xorg.conf.<BR><BR>I still have the xorg.conf generated when I
installed FC6 from scratch. <BR>Very small indeed, but completely different
from the one I use now.<BR><BR>/Paulo Roma.<BR><BR># Xorg configuration
