Hi All.

My laptop's graphics display is Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 500 and my display can support 1366 x 768 resolution. Laptop Model No. is Sony vaio CX113KG. When I try to install Fedora 10 it starts in text mode. When I give the command startx it gives the following error.

(EE)Unable to locate /open config. gile
New driver is "Intel"

Fatal Server Error

Kindly help me how to fix this issue.

Why not install Fedora 12 ?

Rumors says Fedora has fixed the intel driver for that version.

P.S. Fedora 10 : Unsupported in about 40 days.

Thanks. I think this will solve my problem since I tried with Ubuntu Netbook remix and succeeded. Thanks a Lot.
