Hi, folks. This is, in fact, off-topic: I'm fighting a user's FC19 box. I updated him, rebooted... and his ATI video card seems to not be supported any more (and it's *not* that old - an RV620).
I have a system running Fedora 19 that has a RV620 video card in it. It is using the radeon video driver and working just fine.
~]$ modinfo radeon | egrep -v 'firmware|alias|param' filename: /lib/modules/3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko license: GPL and additional rights
3.11.4-201? From my reinstall, I have 3.11.1-200 and 3.11.6-200. No 201, and no new update (I just did that as I saw this).
Here's what I've got on a system I'm running.

Ok, so two things: first, do you have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf? Second, what's your kernel line in grub look like? Oh, and for the third of two questions, do you have radeon blacklisted, or nomodeset, anywhere?
The thing that drives me crazy is, when I reinstalled the whole system, whatever video driver the installer used for graphical install *worked*. So: does anyone have any idea a) what driver that uses, and
b) how to
force grub2 to use it (or do I also need to do this to the initrd)?
So you're seeing problems with the splash/loading screen?
You've added a ! where there was none. No, the graphical install displays *perfectly*.
