Neat name, impressive command; but is there a way to make it usable by subtechnoids? Can I pipe the -xml or -html options into a browser, for instance? Or something into baobab for it to use as labels? Most recent example : I got the livna display configuration kmod- nvidia stuff, and it helped; but it didn't tell me whether to use the nvidia configurator or the livna one, or both; and the livna page warned me that I might have any of several cards. I'd like to check that last, and tackle it again. One of the old hardware browsers, iirc, would have enabled even me to find out what video card I have. (An electronic friend is kind enough to assemble machines to meet my budget, every year or three; but I never needed to know one video card from another -- till I got this blankety-blank new monitor ...) -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Fedora 8 & 9; Alpine 1.10, Pan 0.132; Privoxy 3.0.6; nine (count 'em -- nine) different browsers Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
