Hello all! I finally have my dual boot set up with my dell laptop. it has xp and fc7 on it. Whenever I switch to beryl the screen goes white. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Also how do I set up my wireless on this?

thanks all

Install the driver for your video card. For my NVidia it's yum install kmod-nvidia. For ATI I think it's yum install kmod-fglrx.

my device manager in windows says display adapter is NVIDIA Quadro NVS 110M

so does that mean I just do a yum install kmod-nvidia or is it something different?

thanks again

that worked! thanks. But now I have another problem my internet wont work under fc7. It works fine with xp. I am using a cat5 cable that I know works because again it works in xp. If I disable and reenable my card it works again. Any ideas on why this is happening and how I can fix this?

thanks again guys

Also when I attempted to open my kopete and set to available I received an error.

The error says, "The application Kopete (kopete) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). "

It then goes on to say I can report it to bugs.kde.org

any ideas guys?
