It may be that tuxcards is using different fonts than before, but not properly requiring them. You should fill out a bux against it, if there isn;t already one covering this problem. > I can hear sound, but only just even if I wind up the volume on my > desktop and the volume on the speakers themselves. There were some issues related to sound that were not handled well when there wasn't enough time to do things right. You might be able to fix this with alsa-mixer. From the command line you can run alsa-mixer -c0 (if you have more than one sound card you may need to use a different option) and you will be able to set some other volume controls. In F12 these issues will be addressed by having some soundcard specif data for exceptions and by tying some of the volume levels together. There is also a graphic volume tool that was added back in just before the release, but I don't remember the name. > These are so infuriating I am now contemplating reverting to 10 despite > the fact that conversion to 11 cost me oodles of download time as it > took so d*mn*d long. That will probably be more painful. Resolving your problems in F11 might be easier. > Maybe I should have waited and purchased the DVD rather relying on the > update feature to go from 10 to 11. Any comments? Downloading a live DVD and testing it before upgrading is a very reasonable thing to do. > Finally, to save me future bother and suchlike, is it possible to > install several distros on the one HD and be able to select them at > start-up?

There are potential issues if you want to share /home between versions. Plus it may be a significant amount of work to get from your current layout to one with multiple versions of Fedora on it. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
