[rhn-users] Problems getting X started

[Kjell Arne Arvesen]

Hmm... I have enough disk space but I checked the log file and found the 
following:

(**) Option "dpms"
(**) RADEON(0): DPMS enabled
(II) RADEON(0): X context handle = 0x00000001
....
....
(==) RADEON(0): Write-combining range (0xd0000000,0x1000000)
(II) RADEON(0): Dynamic Clock Scaling Disabled
(WW) RADEON(0): Direct Rendering is disabled by default on Radeon VE/7000
hardware due to instability, but has been forced on with
"Option "dri" in xorg.conf. You may experience instability.
