thinkpad t23 fedora 9 xserver help

[scoldingice]

hello
i have a thinkpad t23 laptop that is currently running fedora 8. it works great but i would like to upgrade to fedora 9, either by fresh install or upgrade. yet when i tried the live cd or installing on another hard drive i could not get the x sever to start.

now its a type 2647, 1.13ghz processor, 768 megs memory, the video card i know is a s3 not sure on the exact model.

any help would be greatly appreciated

thank you
Brian

When you are running from the LiveCD, are you able to get to a command prompt? If yes, see if there are any errors in the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file.
