Installation doubts

[grindstone]

OK thank you for hanging in there and doing all that. Give us a bit to look this all over.

In the meantime, if you have not activated the swap (not sure why that didn't happen during inst?), for now you can add the line for it in fstab if it's not already in there.

lsblk --fs

will give you the UUID number for your /dev/sda5. Then make sure you have a line for it:

Code:

UUID=theoneyougotwithlsblk none            swap    sw              0       0

in /etc/fstab. Save that so its active at bootup going forward, then try to turn it on

swapon -a

and check with

free -m or df -h etc to make sure it's on/right. Not sure how you got that far w/o it being detected or got a module built w/o it, but...tip of the hat

While I'm here, does it even have the card0 file in there?

ls -l /dev/dri

Thanks again for the patience and tip of the hat on the dogged-pursuit. You are helping to shake-out things and teh testing helps.
