I recently went from RH 7.3 to Fedora Core - but found Fedora not ready for a newbie like me - very buggy in places - so now I am running 9.0 - it was fine until I registered , paid my entitlement fee to RH and ran up2date - since then many Gnome related features are messed up - the terminal window in only about an inch wide and does not accept text, the screen saver daemon is not working - what should I do next?

Bios: boot from floppy drive a: first! Nice advice, but the problem lies with Asus sticking a non-standard floppy controller on their mainboards which really won't work under RH9 without kernel modifications... -- Klaasjan Brand <kjb@xxxxxx> -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
