This is no longer possible, Fedora decided to go on with Gnome 3. So the choice is Gnome 3, or one of the other fine desktop environments as e.g. KDE or XFCE. You can choose your desktop somewhere in the install process of F16. XFCE is fast, stable and is a lot "Gnome-2-alike", so maybe you want to go with this one.. -- 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 Have a question?
