From: centos-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces at centos.org] On Behalf Of Janez Kosmrlj Sent: maandag 28 juni 2010 13:59 To: CentOS mailing list Subject: [CentOS] centos 5.5 on optiplex 745 Hi, we have some old dell optiplex 745 machines which have the Intel 965q chipset. The problem is, that they freeze as soon as the system tries to start the X system. It happens even before any log is written. This happens almost every time (for some reason it sometimes work, but 99% it fails). When i change the graphic driver in xorg.conf from intel to vesa it mostly works, but still i sometimes get a flickering screen, but this can mostly be resolved using ctrl+alt+backspace (sometimes you have to try this twice). We use the 1024x768 and 24 bit colors, so this shouldn't be the problem. Does anyone know a fix for this problem? ______________________________________________________ This is an issue with the graphics, it gets initialized in the wrong way ( driver ) The installer does not recognize the correct video chip during install. If you boot the system in runlevel 3 and then change the driver to i810 in the device section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf : Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "i810" EndSection Good luck, Edwin
