Is this actually a 64-bit machine? So far I have not been able to get

This did not work for me. After it goes through all the daemon startups,
it gives a screen with a lot of crazy colors across the top, and alt-F2
brings up a blank screen with a blinking cursor. The syst
I never have been able to get Fedora 13 to work. There is something
about the recent kernels; I can't get it to work at anywhere near the
resolution it is capable of with either nouveau or the Nvidia

For that, "gparted" is required. I don't know why Fedora doesn't have
this but Ubuntu does. To get Fedora 13 working on my new
This is in regard to the issue that, when Linux is hibernated, upon

One reason that "chown" is only allowed to the root user is that users
