An update since the email below: This market still doesn't work, however yum works very well; yum may be a challenge for those users who are not teckies, and don't know how to use the command line as well as seasoned users, especially since we/you give the users access to this market, for lack of a better term.

Also, I find that scrolling is a problem with some programs on this computer. In said programs, such as Nautilus, on this portable unit, when sliding my index down the side of the mouse-square, I am taken immediately to the bottom of the folder. I have to grab the scroll-bar with the mouse-button, which can be slightly annoying.

hope this helps,

Richard

After having this installed, is it adequate, or acceptable, to ask what kind of information you want? Is it adequate to offer that I am prevented from installing software in the add/remove software (market)? Those that I attempted thus far to install consisted of Libra-office and Thunderbird software, and am not able to install anything except for Google Chrome.

As per the Fedora 17 schedule [1], Fedora 17 Final Release Candidate 2
(RC2) is now available for testing. Content information, including
changes, can be found at https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5196 .
Please see the following pages for download links (including delta ISOs)
and testing instructions. Normally dl.fedoraproject.org should provide
the fastest download, but download-ib01.fedoraproject.org is available
as a mirror (with an approximately 1 hour lag) in case of trouble. To
use it, just replace "dl" with "download-ib01" in the download URL.

Ideally, all Alpha, Beta, and Final priority test cases for Installation

meet the Final Release Criteria [6]. Help is available on #fedora-qa on
irc.freenode.net [7], or on the test list [8].
