After install reboot something wrong !

[tuxic]

Okay,  after yhe install I arrived to the Grub Boot, enter the e and add "radeon.modeset=0",  hit control x,  then try to boot and in the load proccess all the letters looks fuzzy,  and when I try to open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F1) It looks fuzzy also.  Appears and disappears (I have to hit Ctrl+alt+F1 so it appears again.  I have tried to enter my autentication a zillion time and it says the same a other install tries: Authentication Failure. I'm not such a  moron,, I've tried everything that this instrucions detail...

... enter the e and add "radeon.modeset=0",  hit control x,  then try to boot and in the load proccess all the letters looks fuzzy,  ...

given the result, I assume you added the cheatcode in the wrong line. You first have to navigate the cursor to the right place ***behind "ro quiet "***. After editing this line should read something like ....
<vmlinuz> ... ro quiet radeon.modeset=0

I'll give up,  nothing works... maybe my machine is not made for Siduction.  Back to Debian Sid.  I'll add Siduction sources and repositories.

[devil]

Sid will have the very same problem, which all ATI cards share atm.
The easiest thing is use failsafe option on the live iso, boot it, install firmware-linux-nonfree and install siduction after that.

All done and good to go.

+ remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf

I ALREADY have a running Debian Sid with KDE,  Liquorix kernels and SMXI on one of my partitions and it melts like butter.  
On the other hand, (devil) I don't know how to install firmwarelinux-nonfree-- live or after the HD install???  Because after the HD install I can't open anything.  
Also (towo) when to delete this file??? Live or after the HD install???  Believe me when I say that I'll do my best to make it happen...

[tuxic]

Please,  let me know hot to install firmwarelinux-nonfree LIVE and remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[towo]

1. start live with safe settings
2. after start, add non-free to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list
3. apt-get update && apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree
4. install siduction
5. mount the partition where you have installed siduction
6. delete there /etc/X11/xorg.conf
7. reboot

realy hard?

[tuxic]

Not so hard,  that's what I needed.  A step by step so clear that even a moron (like me) could follow.  Thks towo and devil!!!

[tuxic]

... and by the way,  it's solved.  Frustration ended!!!

5. mount the partition where you have installed siduction

7. reboot

towo and devil: I've seen the same problem in the forums so a humble suggestion would be to publish a "sticky" of this step by step tutorial.

[blackone]

sorry about that :oops:

[tuxic]

Now this become interesting: even after following devil, towo and blackone tutorial,  after the Grub screen,  the screen became very fuzzy but it get fixed before the login screen.  Then something happened: started experimenting with Liquorix kernels and VOILA!!! A very clean boot and load process. Maybe I'm wrong (I'm miles apart from beeing an expert) but that's why I don't have the problem with my Debian Sid KDE with Liquorix and SMXI script. I thing that the towo's kernel need some adjusting to work appropiately with the ATI Radeon HD. :roll:
