To test things like this, you know you can interrupt Grub at boot and by using 'e' you can edit a boot entry so you can add options like this to test. Rather than edit something in to grub.conf that later prevents system from booting I mean. > Is acpi=off a no no in Fedora anymore. Running with ACPI off on most modern systems is going to pose problems. While you can try it, I would caution that it likely will not work very well, if at all. > I 'm having a couple of problems with audio and webcam working and I wanted > to see if acpi=off would make any difference What rationale do you have for thinking it was ACPI that caused the problem? :) HTH, /Anders
