Hi!
I installed kernel 2.6.0 (still with Fedora Core 1), hoping to solve the problem, but it got hanging when it starts up (seems to me, when it tries to detect my harddisk, hda).
I follow the steps given in :
http://www.freax.be/wiki/index.php/Fedora%20core%201%20with%20kernel%202.6-test
Marc, could you maybe share your configuration file?
Thanks and happy holidays!
Cheers,
Ari

I saw that there are many patches for the tg3-driver in the current
2.6.0-final-release - maybe the problem is solved now.

I deaktivated usb in the bios to install thy system - after activating
"hotplug" the keyboard works well :-)

This is also a option - i use the the radeon-driver:

Unfortuneately XFREE says at starttime - that dri is not supported - the driver
runs well, but without fast opengl :-)
A friend said that hardcoding a older, but compatioble vga-adapter in the
XF86Config-4, will help - he will send me a a directive to do this -
maybe then it will works.
I will announce it in this thread.
Best regards
