Fedora can autoconfigure X without a xorg.conf in many cases. If you would like to generate one, yum install system-config-display and run system-config-display --reconfigure.

Thats where i used to tweaks my touchpad settings... The X server auto configures itself these days, isn't it neat? Anyway you can just write a xorg.conf from scratch and put it in the usual place and it will be used next time the server starts up. I'd just copy whatever specific configuration you had for your touch pad and leave everything else out for the server to detect since its defaults are almost surely what you need anyway.

No laptop buttons is working, and they where all working in F9 with not doing anything. This is very disappointing for me that use my laptop for business.

It's been a steady road down hill since then. A HP laptop I purchased in 2001 could not use the full LCD area in X Window... until Fedora 9 (2008!)... (X Window driver issue relating to lack of doc by graphics hardware vendor I believe). I guess the APM power management was simpler back then. Now it's a hodgepoge of half broken implementations of ACPI. Windows is ok because the hardware vendor works very very hard to ensure Windows compatibilty. So it's not Linux/Fedora developer's fault -- but I do wish there was more effort put into finding a solution. BTW: this is something I would pay for... eg $40 per release if anyone is thinking of providing a solution pack for a given make/model laptop to make it function perfectly with a given distro of Linux.

You can easily download the required src.rpm with yumdownloader --source kernel or yumdownloader --source kernel-PAE, depending on which kernel you use. But it may also be that the kernel-devel package already suits you, but it does not contain the complete source, but only some files.

Without them you won't be able to get the full set of features of your card. You need to enable an extra repository called rpmfusion and install the nvidia drivers from there: # yum install rpmfusion-free-release # yum install rpmfusion-nonfree-release # yum search nvidia Look for the driver and then install it: # yum install [driverName] If you do so you should restart the X server getting out of the session and log again. For the sound problem i don't know what is happening, but you should go to System -> Preferences ->Hardware ->Sound and push the test button. If it works maybe you are trying to play music in a proprietary format (mp3, wmv) and then you need to install non free audio plugins. Then you should do this: # yum install gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly After that you should be able to play mp3 files if the problem where the codecs. Hope this helps. 2008/11/29 Kevin Kempter > Hi All; > > I'm trying to instal Fedora10 on my new laptop but I've run into a few > issues. > > It's a Dell Precision M6400 - I'm running KDE > > > I have 2 issues: > > > > 1) I cannot get the full screen resolution > I can go to administration --> display and under the 'Hardwae' tab I can > configure the display as a generic or as a Dell 1920x1200 but no matter > what > I choose the 'Settings' tab only lets me choose a max of 1400x1050 > > 2) system notification sound works, and rhythmbox sound works but no other > sound / players work such as amaok or Kaffiene > > Thanks in advance for any help ... > > _______________________________________________ > Fedora-laptop-list mailing list > Fedora-laptop-list at redhat.com > http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-laptop-list > -- -- Miguel ?ngel P?rez -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
