Booting the Gentoo 1.1a ISO with a ProSavage graphics card gives vertical lines on screen. This bug appears to be a 2.4.18 kernel referred to at http://groups.google.com/groups? hl=en&threadm=linux.kernel.1016639993.025783.8294.nullmailer% 40bozar.algorithm.com.au&rnum=5&prev=/groups%3Fhl%3Den%26q%3Dasus%2Ba7vc% 2Bchipset Managed to install Gentoo using a different graphics card; after installation the original ProSavage worked OK, so maybe this is fixed in 2.4.19? In which case a new iso with a .19 kernel may be all that is needed.
any updates on this, keith?
Given that once I had installed Gentoo and built the 2.4.19 kernel the problem went away, no! I assumed that the problem was the fact that the Gentoo 1.1a ISO was using a 2.4.18 kernel, which apparently has a problem with those cards (see URL quoted earlier). If you have updated 1.1a to use 2.4.19 and you'd like it tested, point me to the ISO image and I'll try it for you. Keith
Ah well, the 1.2 ISO uses 2.4.19, afaik so this is hopefully a non-issue now :)
Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux". I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers, this is the only reasonable way to do this.
