4.1.2 Driver Installation on Red Hat Linux 7.3
The standard Linux installation procedure will install the graphic driver for the
VGA chip. However, under the Red Hat Linux 7.3 or higher versions, the
standard VGA driver is not fully compatible with the C&T69000 VGA chip.
The installation of the Red Hat Linux 7.3 may hang after entering
X-Windows.
To fix this compatibility issue, two configuration files must be modified under
text mode. Both files are locate at the /etc/X11 directory
