I’m also a seasoned vet in Red Hat’s Linux packages but I found your tips to be very, very useful and well documented. Thank you – Stephen

… and the above config is for kmod-fglrx module from rpmfusion … and if you use above config you may need also to disable “fglrx” service that will always rewrite your xorg.conf with its own dumb (in my case) settings.

1 Ghz processor or better
20 Gig HD or larger
256 Megs of RAM or more

With these minimum system requirements (that I personally came up with) you will find you have a good working Fedora based system.

I tried Linux for the first time with Fedora 9. Thanks to helpful individuals like yourself, (who provide great articles like this one) I stuck around for version 10. I was SHOCKED at how easily and quickly it installed! I also found the LIVE CD very useful and intuitive. I am going to be promoting FEDORA to others. Look out Micro$oft!
