Hi All
I have done a fresh install of fedora 14 x86_64 from DVD media on a Mesh
Pegasus 15 laptop Athlon 64 +3400 1GB Ram
Only problem is anaconda doesn't recognise the openchrome 1400x1050 LCD
screen and I made the mistake of using graphical install.
All went well and graphical install appeared as 1600x1200 vesa so I
couldn't see the NEXT button of the bottom of the screen!
Had to boot init 3 and create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf using "xstart" to
debug it.
All working now though a missed out the final stage of graphical install
such as registering the system
Should have chosen basic graphic install and then setup the display
later!
Got DVD playback working :-
Added rpmfusion yum repository then:-
yum install xine*
yum install gstreamer*
yum install gnome-mplayer*
yum install totem*
yum install audacious*
Had to get libdvdcss from http://rpm.pbone.net/
Thanks to all the developers !!!
Fedora 14 Looks Great !!
