You need to calm down. I only quoted and replied to a small portion your post. I am not the person to answer all these questions, so there's no point to replying to my message with these question. You mentioned 'hidden' and 'last minute' and I only disagreed with that. I am not prepared to argue against/for the merits of an early Xorg etc. I only originally asked a question since you seemed to be aware of a problem with RHGB that I was not aware of, and wanted to be informed. -- Fedora 7 : sipping some of that moonshine ( www.pembo13.com ) -- Fedora-desktop-list mailing list Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
