Video adapter, Sound card, NIC is not detected in FC6
I had been trying to upgrade to the latest version of the Fedora (currently trying to upgrade to FC6) for the past couple of years, and couldn't do it, due to hardware issues.
- Everything works perfectly fine under RH9.
- Under FC1 and FC2, my NIC was not detected but my video and sound cards are working fine.
- Under FC4, my NIC and Sound cards were not working, but video card was working.
- But now with FC6, none of them works. Even during the installation Anaconda can't detect the video card. After the installation completed in the text mode, the x-server cannot start due to video card problems.
Here is the configuration of my system as described in RH9 (2.4.20-smp).
Video Card/Monitor:
RIVA TNT2 M64/ 32MB
Philips 107B (17Inch/CM6800)
Audio Card:
C-Media Electronics Inc
CM8738
cmpci
Network Card:
Hardware: eth0 (RealTek RTL-8139, SMC EZ Card)
Here are outputs for commands lspci, lsmod, modprobe and files iomem, modules.conf from RH9.
Currently, I can't even install FC6 properly (due to video card problems) to get similar output.
I know enough knowledge about the Redhat or Fedora to install and use it, but don't anything about the Source code compilation or Linux Kernel Architecture. So, please do give me enough information, so that I can understand and execute on it.
If this information is insufficient, please let me know, I will provide more information (if possible give me instructions on how to get it).
