After installing RH8 with a dual boot to XP, Linux will not load correctly unless the video is set to 640x480 w/256 colors. Any other setting will cause the system to load with the screen all garbled. The video card is an ATI Radeon 7500 with 64mb ram and works fine under xp. Being new to RH I am at a loss.

You may want to download RH 9.0 though as it comes with XFree 4.3.0 which has a lot better ATI support... not sure if just getting XFree 4.3.0 will work, you may want to try http://www.xfree86.org/ (remove any spaces)

good luck and sorry about previous answer...
