Removing "rhgb quiet" from the boot line is a very good idea. It's a lot more fun to watch the messages flash by under the 4 penguins than to watch a more or less empty screen. Unfortunately, the system puts the monitor to sleep after system shutdown, and the screen goes blank. I *think* I see messages about unmounting file systems and that I don't see a panic message, but I'm not sure. I'll try to find a monitor setting to keep the screen from going blank when it receives no signal. Any advice would be welcome: the monitor is an Acer P243W) Thanks - jon -- 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?
