I've known about this trick for more than a decade, and when I try to switch to any text console on my F10 installs, nothing occurs -- the system remains in X. The combination of that with no more root logins (which I'm vehemently opposed to as I think this nannying of experienced users is against the whole Linux experience) and changes to the grub config that make the window to catch the boot loader much narrower, my overall impression of Fedora 10 as a long time Linux user is very negative. Firefox keeps losing my bookmarks (yes, there's a bug filed for that with mozilla), arrow keys don't work correctly in qemu or vmware, metacity crashes on startup 1 in 5 logins, suspend doesn't work despite the next generation suspend code being used in other distributions that do work, and all my systems have had their nfs mounts denied due to another overzealous "security improvement"... Sure, some of these are simple bugs, but the one that drives me nuts is the system denying me the ability to fix it. The security concerns are unreasonable given that Fedora 9 popped up a dialog warning a user when logging in as root. This is a step backwards in usability, not an improvement. -ben -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
