You've never had Windows notice that you've plugged in a new mouse, new hard drive, graphics card, et cetera, and seen it grunt through the "new hardware detected" routine, that often fails?
Back when I was still dual-booting this box, I upgraded the video card. First I booted into Win98SE. It detected the new card and insisted on dropping down to a minimal 640X480 screen while I installed the new drivers and rebooted. Then, I had to tell it to go back to the proper screen settings, after which I had to put almost every single icon back where it belonged because Windows had moved them and only remembered the new locations.
Then I booted into Linux. It Just Worked. -- 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?
