I had the dreaded "low volume" problem with Fedora 11, and none of the things I tried would fix it, but with Fedora 12 I don't have the problem. Woo-hoo! Also, Fedora 12 figured out by itself to put my two monitors side-by-side, rather than mirrored. With Fedora 11 it took me several hours to figure out how to craft a suitable xorg.conf, but with Fedora 12 it "just works". Kudos to everyone involved! Eric
