It is widescreen. It's not graphics.
The 2.6.11 kernel that comes on the FC4 install works. But, I can't accept
this notebook if it won't boot newer Fedora kernels.
All Fedora 2.6.14.xxx kernels won't boot. With no command line args, it
stops at
ACPI: Subsystem revision 20050902
If I use acpi=off it stops later. I also tried acpi=irq. All fail, but at
different points!
I tried the new test kernel 2.6.15-1.1823_FC4. Same result.
I am trying to install FC5T1 right now.
