Default Screen Flickering and Issues !


Hi
As you know I have got a new rig and a new TFT .. Te model is Samsung 943NWX.,

I loved the monitor , it has great color reproduction but when I play movies HD 1920X1200 like Big Buck Bunnny.. I notice flickering when there are fast movements , few lines appear while playing movies.... Not all times but it appears quite a few times for less than a seconds..

Fellows suggested to fix it by using Vsync from ATI CC . Done but to no avail..

Currently using F10 x64.. When I shutdown my PC monitor says Set reo to 1440X900. Also I am not getting graphical grub and boot splash in F10 x64 ?

Regards

Execute this
Code:
su -
lspci | grep -i vga
grep -i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Post output here.

Remove # sign before splashimage line in /boot/grub/grub.conf file. In case, it doesn't work, post the contents of /boot/grub/grub.conf file here.

Code:
[root@shashwat ~]# lspci | grep -i vga
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon HD 3300 Graphics
[root@shashwat ~]# grep -i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
grep: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory
Grub List

Code:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You do not have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
#          root (hd0,0)
#          kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda1
#          initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora (2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64)
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64 ro root=UUID=5eeafc11-aa72-485a-ba68-0740ea688f6a rhgb quiet 
    initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64.img
How am I suppose to install ATI Catalyst Center in F10 /

splashimage is already active in grub.conf file and Splash should be there at startup. Does /boot/grub folder lists splash.xpm.gz file?

Fedora is using Generic configuration for X Server. I would suggest you create xorg.conf file manually and specify HorizSync/VertRefresh rates supported by your monitor. Check Monitor's Manual for supported Refresh Rates.
