shouting at them. It's commonly considered quite rude. Secondly, Please configure your mail client to send text-only mail, at least to this list, as the people who frequent may or may not be running graphical clients, so would be unable to read your HTML-formatted mail (among other reasons). In actually, my server's SpamAssassin marked this as possible spam simply because so much of it was HTML and was using large fonts and only uppercase lettering. Thanks. To answer your questions, there are many sites, such as the unofficial FAQ[1], the forums[2], this list, the main project page[3], etc. that have a lot of nice documentation and other help. There's even a LiveJournal community[4] if you're into that sort of thing. [1] http://www.fedorafaq.org/ [2] http://www.fedoraforum.org/ [3] http://fedora.redhat.com/ [4] http://www.livejournal.com/~fedora/ To be frank, the install shouldn't be too difficult, as Anaconda (the installer program) is quite good at automatically detecting and configuring hardware. The only things you may need to be aware of are network settings (for example, hostname and broadcast/subnet info if you're not using DHCP; or the ESSID/WEP key of a wireless card). If you have an NVidia GeForce card or newer (post-9250) ATi Radeon video card, you may or may not have difficulty with NVidia's and ATi's respective binary-only drivers. However, without these, you will still have full 2-D hardware acceleration. The proprietary drivers are for 3-D hardware acceleration. X.org/Linux has full hardware acceleration support for the older Radeon cards (9250 and below). You may also have trouble with some newer wireless cards, such as those based on the Atheros or Broadcom chipsets, since the drivers for these are binary-only (madwifi[5] or perhaps nonexistent, and you may have to use ndiswrapper[6], for example, which provides a kernel "wrapper" around the specific Windows .sys kernel mode driver). [5] http://madwifi.sourceforge.net/ [6] http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/ In summary, if you're hardware isn't anything too strange, you shouldn't have many, if any, problems installing or configuring Fedora Core. I hope that helps, and all goes well for your install! -- () The ASCII Ribbon Campaign - against HTML Email, /\ vCards, and proprietary formats. --------------------------------------------------- Peter A.
