I have a Dell P4 desktop machine with a built-in Intel graphics card. lspci reports:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller Intel Corp 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01)
The graphical installer freezes and X freezes after a short time (usually seconds or tens of seconds) after starting (even with a fully updated system). I've seen reports of issues with the Intel graphics driver on F10, but does anyone have a way of making this work or does anyone know what the status is of the driver?
Yeah this is one of the issues I had - with the same chipset - I called the vesa driver in the kernel boot line (adding xdriver=vesa) to get going and then changed the grub entry to do this for the next boot. I also added "nomodeset" as well!
The Intel Integrated Graphics is currently the subject of much needed development for F11 since there is a big push to get kms working with these. You will see a current project to test the state of this in Fedora Test List.
