Splut
Centos crashes shortly after starting up X. Ungood. It's either the drivers that ship with Centos 4, or the video card. Given that I've had two flaky video cards in two years, my bet is on the card.
As a test, I'm going to try installing Fedora Core 4 Test 3, which should have the very latest of everything. I'll know soon enough.
Update: Splut.
It's just a little annoying, because this computer was delayed for two weeks while I waited for the video card to come in, and then I changed the order to a different model (costing an extra $60) which was supposed to be available the next day but actually took another week to arrive, and turns out not to work.
Bah.
Maybe it's a 64-bit driver issue. I'll try again with a 32-bit version of Linux tomorrow. That does kind of defeat the purpose though.
