[NTLUG:Discuss] Laptop Redhat 7.1

[MadHat]

What kind of laptop?

I recommend checking out the Linux-Laptops page..
http://www.linux-laptop.net/

Boot your machine into run level 3
CLI interface...

at LILO type 'linux 3' or press [TAB] to see what options you have.
if it is the graphical version (which is what I expect for RedHat 7.1) hit 
[CTRL]-x to see the text version and type in 'linux 3'

use lynx to go to the site and find the XF86Config they used (often offered 
and tested and proven on Your laptop) along with recommendation on how to 
get your notebook working and what issues they have had...
