Redhat 7.2 with ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon
 
Hi there. I have got problem with installing Redhat Linux 7.2 on my PC with ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon. The problem is when the "Anaconda" starts probing my videocard than there is a messege - "Runtime error, Cannot open displey". I am running the Redhat 7.1 without any problems and I thought that Redhat 7.2 would finally bring me new Xfree86 (DRI) and better Kernel. But id doesnt work. Even the text or lowres install doesnt work. Anyone has the same problem? And the system is Abit-KT7A with AMD Duron 700@975 Mhz. Thanks. Filip.

Report the problem to RedHat. If it is a bug and they release a patch you can use it in the form of an update disk, for example:

Also, have you tried all the possible install modes, including low-res and text modes?

I had 2 S3 cards that were working fine with RH6.x, and when 7.x came along, blammo. It would be nice if newer versions didn't have these kinds of problems...
