Hey Doug,
Any particular reason you aren't using 64 bit
Fedora? If it's because of a 32bit app, the chance of it
working on x86_64 is *very high* and so worth trying.

May I suggest the 64 bit - the graphics are much faster. 32 bit
is glunky for 2/3D and animation.

Well, the reason was that I had the disk. So I listened to the sage
advice from the list here, and started to download the file. I have
the usual cable connection, and I thought
I'd have the file in 20 minutes or so. The estimate was 4½ hours! I
said to go ahead, and then after about 2½ hours I accidentally
aborted it. I'll try again late tonite.
I'm downloadeing from fedoraproject.org.
