[olivares at riohigh Documents]$ /sbin/lspci | grep 'VGA'
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE]

I logged into level 3 and startx and its working. The other one, however is not. I see the following :
ERROR: failed in exec of /bin/echo: input/output error
ERROR: failed in exec of /bin/sleep: input/output error
ERROR: failed in exec of /bin/sleep: input/output error
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
[drm:radeonfb_panic] : ERROR: panic occurred, switching back to text console.
I started in level 3 and this is the message that I see. The caps lock and scroll lock lights in the keyboard are flashing at me also. I will try to login to level 3 under a previous kernel and see if I can boot and report back.

Antonio
