Default Problems with ATI Raden 4550 dirver

** I have let Fedora install the packages it wants and I have added the

* *mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package.

* *I still cannot get and flashy graphics to work, KDM now flashes a rainbow

* *when it starts.

* *I am sure I have missed something but not sure what. *I do not want to

* *install the ATI drivers but stay with the Open source ones.

* *OpenGL also does not want to work.

* *I have a x68_64 bit machine with all the latest patches running KDE.

The mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package is only needed for 3D (OpenGL)
support, not for general usage.

What happens without the mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package?

Please file a bug at bugzilla.redhat.com with the information mentioned
in the wiki:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_Xorg_problems#All_bug_reports
We need _at least_ dmesg with the boot parameter drm.debug=15 and
your Xorg.0.log in separate text/plain attachments to the bug.

Please also try booting with the nomodeset parameter.
