Excellent!....thanks for this info, as it stands right now I don't think 
they've "perfected" the exact recipe for getting Fedora onto tablets as 
yet, but I can always hope that in the future they'll nail it. I think 
I'm going to go with Debian, only because it appears to have the least 
problems running on the various hardware out there.....until then I'll 
keep on chugging with my Fedora 217 laptop! Thanks again for the link 
and the info...
