FC6: No display on screen; Savage Video Card: Solved

[rajesh.padalia at qatar.net.qa]

Hi List,
I manage to resolve this issue. I don't know how! what I did is reinstalled FC6 with Feodra Extras selected. I think there is some update on Savage driver in Fedora Extras.
Cheers!
Thanks and best regards,
Rajesh
