I've been running F11 pretty much since it came out. It worked well.

I upgraded to F12 earlier this evening. For whatever reason it will not start an X session. I think the problem is that I was using the nvidia driver and kmod can't get an internet connection due to wifi not finding a network connection but when I change my xorg.conf file to use nouveau it doesn't work either.

I think i could rectify the situation if I ran yum update but I don't have a wifi connection from the console session. How does one administer a wifi connection from the command line in F12 ? I know my SSID, etc, but how do I set it from the command line ?

Thanks
