Hi Kamalendu,
I *was* also confident like you after using Redhat 6.0 to Fedora 14
since Feb 2000.
I faced the exact problem.
Solution - Create some free space on the Hard Disk and install Ubuntu
and softlink the home directory under fedora to home directory under Ubuntu.
That is exactly what I have done.
I still have the Fedora in the same state, if anyone still wants to
help, I am still game, but this email I am writing on Ubuntu.
Just for info, I use LXDE on Fedora and also on Ubuntu. So in case some
one wants to help be sure that you have a upgraded (from 14 to 15)
working copy of LXDE on your machine.
with Regards,
Ashwin
