The rest is over my head. I don't even follow why it is that ssh helps, alas! The same map program works fine on other F11 machines, under Wine.

Can somebody translate it down to my level, suggest how to test it, and what to do about it? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
