Howdy! I am coming back to Fedora after several years of Ubuntu. The main reason is that the Fedora version of Emacs in more complete and up-to-date than Ubuntu. I have installed the 64-bit version on a HP 60G-535DX notebook. This is the first time that I run a 64-bit Linux version. I am wondering whether I should install the 32-bit version instead. I have problems with my Atheron AR9285 network card. It is recognized but then performance degrades and finally stops. I also have trouble with the sound configuration. Sticking in the headphones does not mute the notebook speakers. I also am not able to install Google Earth. The binary installer has an ELF failure. Maybe I should just install the 32 bit version? I did some googling and it seems that the latest Fedora 12 kernel have driver problems with both my Atheron card and the Intel 82801I ICH9 HD sound controller. I may have less performance, but I am just an intermediate Linux user and would prefer a "simpler computing experience". What do you all think?
