HI
I was just assigned a laptop with a pre install windows 7 in it. I decide
to
dual boot this server with cent os 5.5 , i did a "linux text " at the
boot
prompt as anaconda was not able to display the graphis screen ( it was barely viable ) . The installation happened perfect , but when i start x windows " startx" or init3 , i can barely see the display. I dont know
where
the issue lies , what module do i need to load .The display is barely visible .
Thanks for all the help !!
Are you running on the mains charger?
Is there some sort of key configuration on your laptop to adjust the brightness of the display?
Kind Regards,
I tried that but it didnt work ..
..i was able to successfully install fedora 9 (after booting it 4 times ) ..humm , but was not able to detect the sound card and the wireless card .
the graphics card is Intel HD Graphics
