Hi

New to the forum.

I installed fedora core 6 when it came out last year and didn`t have any problems doing simple stuff. Now I downloaded fedora core 7 and installed it as a dual boot with Windows XP.
It goes into it usual boot as expected but when it gets down to first boot or some thing it says theres a `problem for video card` and asks me to try to configure the X-server and view a log:

/usr/bin/Xorg :error while loading shared libraries :libgcc_(sso?).l cann

sorry last bit got a bit messed up.

The error message is:

Problem for video card : Intel corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device

file "usr/share/firstboot/xfirstboot.py", line 66, in startgraphicalUI
raise Runtime error, XServer failed to start"

I think it could be a driver problem or Xorg.conf settings problem. No help in any log files. And when I try to install Fedora again it gives the message before I install!

Need help or no Linux for me..

Its not clear to me whether your problem is in the installation phase or immediately after installation. If this is an installation problem, try performing the install in text mode. Once the installation is complete, you can try startx, and then you should have access to the X logfile in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. From there, you can inspect and/or post the relevant parts here for further help.
