for what it's worth.. and it might not be much! i have a toshiba satellite, running f9, and had an issue where the system would freeze/lockup, that i managed to resolve with new/different xorg drivers. basically, i changed from radeon, to radeonhd in the xrog.conf, and downloaded the appropriate driver. might help your issue.. but without knowing more about your symptoms/setup, can't say for sure. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Dave Cross Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2008 12:08 AM To: Fedora List Subject: Re: Fedora Hangs on Laptop 2008/11/7 Dave Cross <davorg@xxxxxxxxx>: > I'm running Fedora 9 on a Dell XPS M1330 laptop.

Last night I tried the Fedora 10 preview on this machine and I'm pleased to report that not only did the wireless problems go away, but I was able to use the system for three hours without it hanging. Fedora 10 looks like a lovely release. I'm really looking forward to the official version. Many thanks to everyone who was involved.
