Is any one running F7 on a mother board with a Nvidia NF6100-405 Chip set? I still haven't got the sound working. I'm going to have to give up on F7 as with every update things seem to be getting worse and I don't have the time to persevere with it. In the last week Kmail has started to crash, any mail I send is disappearing, yum is freezing halfway through updates and Kyum is giving error messages, I'm not sure weather to use FC6 or give CenOS a try, as I would still like to use a RH based distribution. How much longer will FC6 be supported for? -- Guy Fawkes, the only man to enter the house's of Parliament with honest intentions, (he was going to blow them up!) Registered Linux user number 414240
