Then I'll setup a boot option to boot w/o proto in it.

I believe this was a severn installation, then skipping devel after 
installing FC1, then upgraded to FC2 and finally trying FC3T2.

I'll backup the xorg.conf, then try the s-c-display --reconfig and see 
if things get setup correctly for the Synaptics touchpad.

The issues w/ anaconda and s-c-display are on a different machine. This 
one should reconfig safely. Setting 24 depth is the killer for the HP 
with the VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility 
U1 Graphics controller.
