Same thing on another, yet to updated system that still has f11 on it. Similar results on an even more out of date system with fc8 which has a bunch of empty directories and one lone file /etc/skel/.xemacs/init.el. Anyone have any comments on whether there are supposed to be more files in the /etc/skel tree, why mine is empty, and what to do about it?
