    There are classified connected, simply connected geometries with diagram \((c^* \cdot P)\) and flag-transitive automorphism group \(G\). It will turn out that there are exactly five geometries. Three of them are finite and \(G\) is \(3(A_6 \times A_6)2\), \(M_{11}\) or \((A_4 \times M_{12})2\) respectively. One is related to the symmetric group of degree 9, and other to the group \(SO_5(5)\), and the author does not know, whether they are finite or infinite.
