When I am shutting down FC3, it exits out of xwindows
and goes to character mode, at this point, the screen
becomes unreadable, what do I need to set to get the
character mode to be readalbe?  Thanks.

Do you use any kind of frame-buffer? Sometimes this happens when you 
have a framebuffered console enabled.

I just did the install, even during the installation I
am unable to read the screen when its in character
mode.  How do I know if I have frame-buffer enabled?

Thanks.

Didn't you just post this question in another thread?

Anyhow, have a look at my home page (URL below) and you'll find a few
different tricks to work around this problem on HP Presario r3000 or
similar notebooks.
