View Fedora 32 Nvidia Driver Settings
So just booted my Fedora box into version 5.7.6-201.fc32.x86_64 kernel and got stuck at the UEFI boot logo and no further. Theoretically the NVIDIA driver should dynamically build and install it's kernel module in the later kernel when you follow the directions at the...
I wanted a visible paragraph mark and after invoking ‘CTRL + SHIFT + u + b6’ my dreams were fulfilled

seLinux practices the silent treatment – If you would only just tell me what’s wrong I would fix it
I have a html form that posts to a Perl CGI script. The script then loops and creates a CSV that is then piped to glabels-3-batch to create a PDF file of labels which lpr then sends to a printer. I found if I select to create 26 labels the script worked but above 26 I...

Fedora 11
The Fedora 11 Feature List seems to cover alot of the Ubuntu 9.04 ground. Everyone seems to be on the 20 second boot wagon. The only thing I'm presuming will be a problem is that you don't get a one click MP3 support install as for Ubuntu. So Fedora 11 still requires...
