After installing Fedora 10, my monitor goes to sleep in about two seconds. If I
turn the monitor off and on I see the desktop and can use mouse,
pulldowns. But
the the monitor goes back to sleep after another 2 seconds...Is
this a setup
issue?

Does this happen on the login screen or only after you have logged in to your desktop?
If it happens only after you log into your desktop, then you have a problem with your screensaver settings.

Hi, it's not a screen saver setting issue. I also faced this situation that when I am going to start Fedora 10, after few seconds monitor has been sleep and I see that anacorn service was not initialized, is it bug or any other problem.
Thanks & Regards

What is anacorn? If it's some sort of third-party screen handler thing, perhaps it's not compatible with Fedora. Try booting without it.
Do you have the same problem when you boot into runlevel 3 instead of runlevel 5?
I faced this problem only in run level 5.

Hi, I think, Adeel Akbar means
anacron
(only a typo!)

You actually mean anacron? How do you see that it's anacron that's hung up after your computer goes to sleep? In other words, what steps do you take to make your computer not be sleeping so you can see what is happening and can determine that anacron has not started?
It's my understanding that when you boot into runlevel 3 then the computer boots normally and you get the Login: prompt so you can enter your username and password and get a regular bash prompt, right?
What happens if you then type startx at the bash prompt? Does your computer immediately go to sleep again?
What do you see in /var/log/Xorg.0.log ? Are there any interesting error messages?
What video card and monitor are you using? Is the issue here perhaps that your video card is putting out a higher-resolution image than your monitor can handle? For example, some older monitors can display only 800x600 screen resolution. If you send them a 1024x768 or higher resolution signal, the display will be blank, partial, or distorted.

Hi frank Cox,
Sometime my computer starts normal and shows display login screen and sometime hanged and no output display in service startup stage after anacorn. When I start run level 5 from run level 3, my system hanged and shows anacorn service starting but not shows OK, it's hanged on this stage.
I used dell Vostro 220 latest machine with latest Dell LCD 20" and this LCD Support maximum resolution. At the moment I used 1680 x 1050 resolution on 60 Hz.
In addition I sent you attached logs file for review. There is some other issue with typically this service.
Thanks & Regards

So you're saying sometimes the computer boots up and works normally, and sometimes it doesn't.
That suggests a hardware issue rather than a configuration issue. Have you checked to insure that you have a good solid connection between the monitor and the video card? Is your computer overheating, is it getting enough air flow? Dirty fans? Loose parts of any kind?
Your Intel onboard video uses part of the system ram for its memory. What happens if you increase or decrease the amount of ram assigned to that? Perhaps the ram in your computer is faulty; have you run memtest86 on it to see what happens? What happens if you remove one of the memory sticks from the computer? What happens if you swap them around?
Hi, In windows I used Microsoft office Outlook 2003 for emails correspondence and now I installed Fedora 10. Can any one tell me any that which application I used in Fedora for Emails which support all functionality of MS Office outlook and also having support to import all my previous emails?

That program looks pretty nifty. Someone should see about maybe packaging that up for some folks. Looks like a good alternative to evo/thunderbird/kmail maybe.
Hi all, my request is to any application which compatible with MS office outlook 2003. I mean I easily transfer emails from MS Office outlook to Fedora Email application and fedora email application to MS outlook 2003.
Thank you

An IMAP server to pass the mails through, in the middle, such as Dovecot.
Try openoffice is better that office of microsoft

Please don't top post. And please make the reply relevant to the question. Personally, I would suggest Evolution, it's the most 'Outlook-like' mail client I know of. I don't know what 'all' functionality in Outlook you want exactly, almost any mail client supports the same basic feature set, calendaring, task management, etc.
try evolution email client, has the same functionality as outlook

Well, not hardly. But it does connect to Exchange server--nothing else in Linux does that I know of.
(Hoping the new MAPI library that's supposed to be in F11 represents progress over the current OWA connector....)

Frank, Mine boots fine but it sleeps during the boot and login. In other words the boot text shows, then goes blank after a few seconds until it reaches some new level of the boot the another breif text flash and this continues until the end of the boot. I can log on only by turing my screen off and on and quickly moving my mouse to the login box, then typing..I will try the screen saver suggestion Greg

I think his spelling is dyslexic, I think he meant to type anacron.
FYI...I found that the Screen Effects was off...turning it on fixed the sleepy monitor...not sure why
