Adrian, I understand the rationale for this suggestion. The reason why I haven't done this (yet) is that (see above and in the article) I already had ALL the same problems, just a bit smaller, with FC12, which was a clean install, with all updates applied etc etc. In other words, the situation with FC12 was just barely tolerable, with the upgrade it simply degraded more. I am trying to gather as much info as possible to understand what is the fastest, or at least "more likely to succeed with the smallest number of reinstalls" way forward. For sure, I can't go on like this, and I will be forced to reformat/reinstall from scratch if I don't find a solution. But at that point, I'll directly try another distro first, simply because my feeling right now is that a clean install of FC14 (or 15) wouldn't do much. One of the reasons why I took the time to make an article online about this is the hope to find somebody that says "hey, I have the same hardware as you, and it runs real fast with distro XYZ" Marco -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
