I've just been reading /var/log/messages on the laptop I put Fedora-8 on yesterday. (Never got PXEboot to work - whatever I did, it said there was a conflict between the F-8 ISO and "base data", whatever that is. In the end I just installed the KDE Live CD, and ran "yum groupinstall" on the package groups I like - as listed by "yum grouplist".) But /var/log/messages is full of such strange things. I feel there should be a Fedora doctor one could sent it to, and she will tell you how to cure all your ills. Here are a few lines: -------------------------------------- Jan 19 11:51:49 mary acpid: client connected from 2400[68:68] Jan 19 11:51:53 mary acpid: client connected from 2555[0:0] Jan 19 11:51:55 mary kernel: [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810 Jan 19 11:51:55 mary kernel: [drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0 20060119 on minor 0 Jan 19 11:53:57 mary pulseaudio[2701]: pid.c: Daemon already running.

What is it, anyway? Can I live without it? gconfd - do I really need this? gconf seems to take up acres of space. Do I really need it? I always assumed it was something to do with Gnome? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
