following my trial to install Fedora;
 I managed to install Fedora 19. I wiped the hard disk. probably that made the difference.
 However, my first issues with Fedora, are the following:
1- it sees my web cam as the scanner.
2- I have a monitor attached to my laptop, I like to have two screens. When I configure the two screens side by side, all good. However, I like to place the extra monitor on top of my laptop, this seems to be ok with fedora as the cursor jumps between screens easily, but if I try to drag a window to the top screen it stops at the edge of laptop screen and won't migrate to the other screen....
3- it found my wireless printer, but not working, shall I try to install the rpm driver.
any solutions?
thank you

Have you tried re-burning the iso image, I tried to install suse once using an image supplied on the APC computer magazine, it went badly and failed.

I found by simply reburning the iso again, I was able to successfully install and run with no problems.  (I also used this information at a job interview which helped me get the job).

I think Fedora with vers 18 is showing some polish, and certainly the earlier development Alpha / Beta vers are much more reliable and professional looking. I see good times ahead for Fedora and its community.

I downloaded the 64 bit version and wanted to install on my lap top (Acer Aspire, i7). I chose Start Fedora, the screen gave a  couple of lines, first one saying "invalid iomem size, you may face problems", then it started to install showing the fedora logo in the middle, and once that gets finished, it shows a cursor and it freezes, nothing happens beyond that. Any solutions out there please. Or shall I just forget about Fedora?
