fedora 7 - andongskee - 2007-11-13


I have tried several times installing fedora 7 and make it fully work in my computer. Even before i can install there's already a problem. The graphic install method wont work. If I click it there wont be any display that would come out. So i tried the text install method. it installed. Then I installed the latest Nvidia Drivers, downloading the RPM package from livna.org. But still, when i startx , the GUI won't come up. The display is the same when I try to install F7 thru graphical install method. Pls. help... My graphics card is an NVIDIA 6800 GS Sonic and my monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster 591s. :( . thanx.

P.s. the CLI is working, just the GUI.
