Hi all,
new to this list, and I'm hoping not to get shot down...
I've installed the f11 beta (kde version) from cd on to a T40 laptop (old Pentium M at
1.5Ghz)... 512 Megs RAM
I have had extreme delays (like 3+ hours to install), and even 30+ minutes to boot from CD
on this system... not sure if it was a CD/DVD driver issue or what...
In any case, the install worked after much patience,
then I did update the system with yum...
in both cases, before and after the update, I'm getting consistent kernel panics,
which I have sent back for analysis.
Also, I'm getting some weird graphics 'melt downs' over time, what happens is
'fuzzy' / 'dirty' graphics are progressively happening mostly on window
borders/title areas, and it seems to get worse over time.
If you would like a screenshot, I could provide one... but basically, imagine a non-linear
type corruption which would turn an otherwise monochromatic background section of a title
bar into a dual or tri-colored pattern...
I have run low level diagnostics on this system, and a full memory test which shows no
errors.
