Both, actually. I'm having problems with my screen resolution -- it won't go
beyond 1024x768, when under Fedora 15, it was 1280x1024 on the same exact
hardware, XFCE is screwed up - if I open a console window, it sticks itself in
the upper-left corner, although I did have that problem under F15 as well. Not
to mention KMail 2 has some serious differences in the way it's set up from the
"old" KMail.
So, yeah... Fedora 16 is messed up, IMNSHO.
I can't help you with this but it might help if you created a xorg.conf
and set the video resolution.
I *can* however help you with the terminal window position.
Install xwininfo if it is not already installed. Open a terminal and
drag it to where you want it to open. Run xwininfo as 'you' and
click on the terminal when prompted. Put the line that starts with
'geometry' in the terminal configuration file in your home directory.
There is also a true or false line in there for a 'blinking' cursor.
