After that everything became functional, and works beautifully. ;-) Thanks Marco - yes you were right - the machine was fully updated but I had not rebooted - after a reboot desktop effects in the second machine do work flawlessly now! Excellent work by the devel team - thank you.... I am really happy with my two machines running f16 now - and will install on a couple more in the next couple of weeks.... Great stuff. -- mike c -- 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
