I chickened out - but it's up

On the topic of FC vs Ubuntu services - Fedora has different runlevels
than Ubuntu.

/etc/inittab describes each runlevel.  When you issue the 'chkconfig'
command, it only turns on/off the service in the current runlevel,
unless you specify otherwise:

chkconfig --level 3 <service>  <- turns <service> on in runlevel 3
chkconfig --level 35 <service>  <- turns <service> on in runlevel 3 and 5

I only mention this in case you switch to text-only or graphical mode
and wonder why your services haven't been started...
