The pretty Solar plugin never works on the F10 livecd. This is expected behavior, due to the fact that we didn't have time to work out a clean way for the livecd to load the DRM kernel modules necessary for Kernel ModeSetting to kick in at boot. KMS does load on the livecd, but not before plymouth starts (it loads once the livecd mounts the root filesystem and udev loads the DRM modules). ~spot _______________________________________________ Fedora-games-list mailing list Fedora-games-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-games-list
