I ran the upgrade/install from Red Hat 6.1 to 7.1 this afternoon.
Tried the graphic mode first, but it did not fit on the screen.
Switched to text mode -- took a few tries. Had to turn the power off and
back on before it would work.
Got through to the finish.
Now when I boot, when Linux puts up the graphic logon screen I get what
looks like a combination of Gnome and KDE. They mess each other up and you
really can't read either one on the screen.
I can switch to one of the text terminals and log in from there and if I go
'blind' I can log into the graphic mode and it appears that Gnome is the
mode -- but there are strange invisible boxes on the screen where Gnome will
not write and it's very confusing to view or try to work with.
Do you think I messed something up in the upgrade?
I should note, that there was not enough space on the hard drive to upgrade
everything that I had previously installed (not that I needed all that
stuff), so I had to 'deselect' some of the packages. After a few go-rounds
with who depends upon what, the installer finally was satisfied and did the
install.
