DVI connection to monitor
by swlinux＠snet.net
Just upgraded from fC7 to FC10. Lots of new functionality, but one
problem:
I use an IBM T61 with a docking station and LG Flatron Widescreen
monitor. The monitor works with the analog VGA connection but not with
the DVI cable. (It did with FC7). Can anyone tell me how to set up the
monitor for DVI?
Thanks,
Scott

Changing from Gnome to XFCE desktop
by Olli Orkoneva
I have at last found a distro which works without bugs in my Acer Aspire One
(8GB SSD). Fedora 10 works on it out-of-the-box.
Do you recommend to change from Gnome desktop to XFCE desktop in order to
make it a bit faster?
It looked to me as simple as first uninstall Gnome, then install XFCE, but I
read a discussion to avoid it, because XFCE has so many Gnome depencies.
So what I am doing now is installing XFCE in addition to Gnome, in order to
use it when I use my own profile, as well as i plan to use some more
lightweight browser like Dillo or Kazehakase.
Does this make sense to you?
Olli

Laptop Keyboard asdf, jkl;, enter disabled on boot up
by Jim Duda
I have a very weird problem.
Compaq Presario F500. Only about a year old.
Recently (past few weeks), whenever I boot up, the following
keys are non responsive; asdfjkl; and the enter key.
If I wait a few minutes, like 3 or 4 minutes, they start
working. If I restart a couple of times, they start
working too, however, I think this is the same 3-4
minute delay.
It would appear to be a hardware problem (bad keyboard),
however, once the keys start working, I never have another
problem, until the next reboot.
Could there be some software issue here?
I really like the laptop, works well, I really don't
want to take it apart unless I have to.

Nice but... if the file is marked as %config in the RPM, the
replacement from the update will be renamed as .rpmnew and you will
need to move it back over your hand edited file.
If not, then it will be overridden anyway with the correct values at
the first update (which I bet is going to happen pretty soon...)
So, IMHO, not worthwhile

Does anyone know how to fix this ?
