The dejavu fonts change also caused some problems. Something that couldn't be updated pinned some other package that was needed for another package and skip broken couldn't figure out how to fix things. (It would be nice if it could at least tell it couldn't succeed rather than going on in an endless loop.) There are also a few kde-i18 and kde-i10 packages that have conflicting files. For some things I uninstalled them in F10 to get the upgrade to succeed and then the other stuff I cleaned up later using rpm to do a downgrade. I used package-cleanup to find things that needed looking at. > Can anybody tell me how to get a screen resolution higher than 800x600 > in the virtual machine?

There's been a bug filed on that from about 4 months ago. The problem seems relatively harmless, so you don't need to do anything about it. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
