PenguinPete Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 I have installed Mandriva (the full 3CD download) but only get a command line prompt. The graphics card is an ATI Rage card. Running XFdrake under Mandriva One (that works fine off the CD) reports that the driver is ATI Mach64 Utah. This is the same as that installed in my installation of Mandriva 2006. I've also tried VESA. On both occasions when I select Test I get: Shutting down X Font Server [FAILED] Starting X Font Server [FAILED] During the initial installationt he Test button worked fine. I do see a failure during the boot process - but it goes off screen too quickly - is it logged somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
