FC6t2 going in right direction :-).

[Tom Horsley]

Well, I just got my system working again, and was able to try
FC6 test 2, and it seems to work (mostly) better than test 1.

The installer's X display still suffers from this bug:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7243
but at least the minimum resolution seems to have
been bumped from 640x480 to 800x600, so even with the
small display, I can at least see enough to get through
the install and modify xorg.conf. I still have to
explicitly tell the radeon driver that the 2nd monitor
is type NONE in order to be able to use the primary
fully.

In better news, all the problems I had accessing my 2nd
sata drive and the various things getting mutex errors
and segfaults during boot are all gone. (see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196419
for the whole sad story).

In the still busted category is:

I also left a yum -y update running last night and
got the inevitable conflicting package problems this
morning, so it didn't actually update anything :-(.
