It seems somebody at the Fedora Forum had the same problem and solved it:

http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=YxD&num=100&q=%22kstartupconfig%22+%22error+3%22+solved&btnG=Search&meta=lr%3Dlang_en|lang_fr

You might also want to try without the "Solved" keyword. There are more
results and sometimes people forget to add "Solved".

It could indeed be better but geeks will always come up with the right
keyworks and show you the solution was there, somewhere.

It's easier to find the right keywords when you know the solution :)
