I've had no such issues. Do you mean from the subject that you had
fedora 4 installed, and then you inserted the fedora 7 dvd and chose to
upgrade ? All apps I use at work {thunderbird, firefox, gkrellm,
vmware-server {not part of fedora}, vnc, tsclient, wired networking,
1400x1050 display} all work fine.
I am still trying to get Skype to work. I have tried a lot of things
but still not the intuitive things used here on Fedora Core 4. They
don't exist on F7.
Is this in relation to skype, or in general operation ? How do you mean ?
There are some harder things I must have working at least as well
Can you actually speak in specifics here ? Which packages ?
as
here on FC4 or I will just stay here. Getting F7 to do things is a pain.
I think for my way of doing things I better drop back to Red Hat 9, or
even 7.
In my opinion on the hardware I have it on: dell poweredge 1600sc and hp
compaq nx6320 {core 2 duo}, Fedora 7 is a definite improvement on all
previous releases.
