I am trying out burning DVDs on F14 and I am seeing some weirdness that
I would like to understand before I call it a bug.
I burn a directory on F14. The directory structure is deep (as in
greater than the pop-up notice of 7) and the names should be within 60
characters. Brassero asks me about

Roberto,
I grasp the concept of reserved memory but do not understand what it's used for
or what the ramifications are.
Memory reserved from 4g for the driver?
Hmmm. It looks like that last value at the bottom goes up to 4g. Is this the
culprit?
I'm not doing anything special with graphics...

Hello,
I need help with a GRUB2 issue.
Yesterday I did a preupgrade from F15 to F16.
I've added a new custom menu entry for grub in /etc/grub.d/40_custom
After running grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg, I saw that
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg was not updated.
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cf

Hello,
I need help with a GRUB2 issue.
Yesterday I did a preupgrade from F15 to F16.
I've added a new custom menu entry for grub in /etc/grub.d/40_custom
After running grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg, I saw that
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg was not updated.

We actually don't wipe memory on free, but on allocate. That has

Hi,
My question is, am I missing something here?
I upgraded my lenovo 60t to 4G memory and don't seem to be able to see all 4G
of the upgrade.
The hardware spec for this machine says it supports 4G memory.
