Hi again, Well, I have now looked at these files and I see that it is active from the boot. But, I have also tried Redhat 9 on this machine and I found that my network works just fine with it so I am thinking about changing to Redhat 9 instead of Fedora. If so, then another question! If I select to isntall everything as I did in Fedora, will Genome be the standard X-enmviroment or will it be the KDE-desktop?
