Hi,

can you tell us a bit more?
Which version of mageia do you use to install? Is it the DVD or the dual-arch CD?
It is very difficult to help you if you don't give us more informations.

Hm, but I still don't know which version of the Beta1 you're using.

The dual-arch CD might not have the needed drivers for your graphics card.
In this case, the DVD would be better. Do you pass any special parameters,
when you try to boot the system with the CD/DVD?

Very nice, but could you please tell, what brought you the solution.
Maybe others can be helped in future with the same problems.

Thanks in advance.

You can update your system through "Software Management" in Mageia Control Centre.
Of course it is necessary to have the repositories added for this, which also can be done in that same place.

that black screen issue it is your laptop screen light is turned to off it's kernel bug was causing that problem if you have another livecd you can get access to your hard disk you need to add line to config file /etc/rc.local and line it is setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=00 this command is turning lcd screen light on i can't say that is working with your problem but it solved my problem what i have had with mageia and mandriva 2011 rc1 and every distro what using kernel 2.6.38 now i am happy to use mageia and this is 100x better than mandriva and good work guys that you have made good os :D

Thx for the info although it was very hard to understand - I had to read your post 4 times until I figured out where one sentence ends and the next one starts.
