How is it possible at all?

You so strange, guys. I cannot realize, how can you use this system at all. I tried to install it over different hardware, and my conclusion is that Fedora, including most recent version, DOES NOT SUPPORT ANY MODERN VIDEO DEVICES. Particulary, NVIDIA cards at least from 7XXX gt numbers. Just now I tried NV GT220: I see initial srceen telling about loading in 10 seconds, and then -black screen, but keyboard responds, changing numlock status. Moreover, few years ago, and now, too, I tried to install Fedora upon MS VirtualPC, and even here screen freezed in non-workable mode. What does it mean, for what you use this strange product -Fedora core? No such problems I have with Mandriva, for example.

We're the 1337 of the 1337, that's why and how.

I have no need for a videocard and monitor, but I read emails through my SPDIF and use POE to connect to my wireless hub.

Hello consular,

I think you can see what is happening here. So to spare you from it, I closed this thread and moved it to a more appropriate subforum for venting. Please think of a way to ask a specific support question without provocative rhetoric and start a new thread.

This is the FIRST and LAST time that I'll insert a follow-up comment to a CM closure on a thread, but please read this thread: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=239805 Same card and he's kind enough to give you step-by-step instructions. Hope you are able to get it working. If not, as Stoat says, calm down and start a new thread, asking for assistance.
