Hi. I've got an ISO for quick testing of anaconda's X
configuration
setup available that's a little bit smaller than a full tree. All you
should have to do is download the ISO, burn it to a CD, boot and see if
X starts up. Then, you can reboot and go back to your normal doings.
Note that this is entirely non-destructive. So you can even run it if
you are running OS X. *ANY* results would be helpful. Please be sure
to include what you see happen as well as what type of hardware you're
using (cpu, video, monitor).
The iso is located at
http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/mac-x-test.iso.
The md5sum is 34234b3cdf2d89e4e94031a50f819285
Thanks in advance for testing this and helping to make test3 (and thus,
the Fedora Core 4 release) better on PPC hardware!
OK, I tried this on my Powerbook G4 12" 867MHz (the 1st generation PB12)
and X starts fine in 800x600x16 bit using the nv driver.
Probing for video card: NVIDIA GeForce 4 (generic)
Probing for monitor type: Unknown monitor
Probing for mouse type: Generic - 3 Button Mouse (PS/2)
Great work.
Cheers,
