Hi All,
Appearance Preferences > Background and selecting 'Make Default' used to
set the selected desktop background as the background image for the GDM
login screen and used to work till F11, but is not working as desired
under F12. Is there any other setting that i'm missing under F12 to do
the same.

I installed xfce desktop long back and uninstalled it. Yesterday when i
retried after doing a new "yum groupinstall XFCE" all the settings that
i had in my previous installations were picked back. I guess the configs
were not removed from the system at that time, finding the same i
uninstalled the environemnt and now when i query the hidden files under
my home directory for xfce there is no results. I guess that they are
some where else.

Please guide how can i make a fresh new install of xfce.

FTP listing of the Fedora mirrors hosted in India, is missing the
debuginfo packages.

Duplicate keyboard shortcuts are presently allowed, while setting
personal shortcuts from System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. As
i remember this was not the case late back.

On my Fedora 12 system, all of the 'debuginfo'
[rawhide-debuginfo,fedora-debuginfo,updates-debuginfo,updates-testing-debuginfo]
are disabled by default in the corresponding repo's under /etc/yum.repos.d/.
As debuginfo-install makes use of these for retrieving all the
information for crash reporting, this should not work but still in
present case ABRT can download the debuginfo packages. How is all this
gettig possible.

Please guide if i'm missing any thing, thanks in advance.

Hi All,

Hi All,

I have been facing an issue with Thinderbird and its sync-up Google
Chrome.

It started happening yesterday afternoon when all of a sudden the system
declined to take input as mouse and keyboard stoped working while i was
working and finally i had to hard reboot.
Fedora 11 box gave following message prior to the graphical boot process
started off, and i was not able to use the inputs devices.
"i8042.c can't read CTR while initializing"

I was also not able to switch to BIOS setup while booting as keyboard
was not responsive.

I downloaded the Fedora-12-x86_64-Live.iso using the torrent client,
taking the torrent from
http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/torrents//Fedora-12-x86_64-Live.torrent. But
the creation of bootable USB was not possible as the iso verification
failed message came up in the USB creator.
Verifying the iso following the steps at
'https://fedoraproject.org/en/verify' also resulted in vain. Please help
me so that the b/w does not goes wasted.
