[silent_cts]

Hello,
i have recently installed fc6 and want to get the proper 3d grafics drivers installed. i have done this so far.

# su -
# yum install kmod-fglrx
Then i tryed to do this " # init 3 " but it said it was not a reconized bash command so i want to know how to shut down x and finish what i have started.

This is the site i used to guide me threw the install. http://www.fedorafaq.org/#radeon
hope some one can help thank you

Your PATH must be messed up for some reason and it cannot find the program. This shouldn't be the case when logged in as "su -l"

Try doing this:
# /sbin/init 3

BTW, I just bought a Radeon x1600 2 days ago, and I am still unsuccessful in getting the 3D graphics to work, even after performing the steps in your link to the Fedora FAQ. I have been Googling ever since with no luck.

If you get it working, please post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.

Good luck!

I'm back ...

If you have trouble making 3D work, try the posted xorg.conf file in post #11

This worked for me!
