Pardus promedion videocard

[Willem]

A collegue wants to install Pardus on his laptop, the livecd worked with minimal options. But with installing the system stalls after boot-up.
He is using a promedion radeon M10 videocard, which I think gives the problem. he already tried all 3 of the install modes.

Hey,

M10 is the problem I think. I did some research on this card and it seems that this card is just an Ati Mobility Radeon 9500 (source: http://ati.amd.com/developer/vendorid.html)

so it shouldn't give any problems with the xorg radeon driver. You could try reading out the /var/log/Xorg.0.log. The only thing I don't really understand is when stalls. Is this after you installed the system to the harddisk and try to boot from the harddisk or is this when it tries to load the installer before you've installed the system. Or option 3 does the installer crash during installation ?

Regards,

Ben
