got
Fedora Core 1 but it is unable to detect my hard drives. Will Fedora Core

Help? I read somewhere that Linux Kernel 2.6.x supports Serial ATA but Fedora
docs
mention nowhere on Serial ATA support is it there in fedora? If not where
do
I get Serial ATA driver? I looked at Seagate site (both my hard drives are Seagate) but nothing there on Serial ATA driver for Linux?
I want to install Fedora asap.

I am no guru. But I have an SATA HDD in my Linux server. And I built it from scratch (components) . My motherboard also has an SATA port, I installed FC2 without a hitch. I didn't try FC1 on that setup.
BTW.....any reason why you're not installing FC3?
Peace

I agree, We should have more professional behavior.

oh.. wait.. they're already there.

Yes they are. But imagine removing those on every damn user profile in... lets say a school.
What really should be done, is split the screensaverpackage in three rpms (at least) - "xscreensaver-safe", "xcsreensaver-gl", and "xscreensaver-others". At least the two first should be installed by default. The reason to split it, is that the gl package can then be removed safely from systems where it is not wanted. Simply beckause they suck CPU, and on non-hw-3d deployments, you migth not want them.

Fedora core 2 and 3 should both detect SATA. If you still have trouble with it, in the BIOS menu, go to the "advanced" tab and look at the IDE configuration. By default, the IDE settings are set to "enhanced" Switch that to "legacy" and make sure SATA 0 and IDE pri and sec are active.

thanks all,
From your description, it sounds like this bug that I reported:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=134265
The current workaround is to disable DRI, at least on my machine.
It may be helpful in tracking the root cause if you append your hardware & xconfig info to the bug report.

Hmm; on looking, the "sanitize-hacks" patch wasn't in FC2; it's new to
FC3.
Perhaps right after the incident you mention. :)

Professionalism in linux is definitely a nice thing, but if you want it, go out and get a copy of enterprise Linux. In Fedora, it's all about the bleeding edge technology and newest ideas from the community, and being "professional" limits that quite a bit. At least in fedora ther'es the freedom for the creative things like the "unprofessional" barcode and flying toasters screensavers. That's what it's all about, the freedom to add any ideas; and that's why Fedora isn't "professional"

Because this is Linux. Linux is meant to be that quirky OS that releives the boredom of stock operating systems like windows. If you want to be professional, use RHEL. But in Fedora, we strive to endorse new ideas, regardless of their "professionality"

I understand both sides of the coin but I agree with Alex. Also;
[And since most professionals are adults and know that world is filled with all sorts of things that _you_ may not like but that others may[...]]
This works both ways, Fedora is a project meant to encourage creativity and contribution. It makes no claims to being "The Safest Linux for Your Kids!", "Squeamish? Worry not dear fellow, we strive daily to insure that you and your family are completely insolated from the peckidillos and quirks of others!"
"We either accept all freedom for all people, or we accept no freedom for anyone. The happy medium is an illusion."
Of course, Fedora is RH's project, and it is steered by a committee, so we must abide by their decsions, but I don't see even mildly-moderately offensive screensavers being a huge issue in an Open Source, community driven project where creative innovation is desired. Let's try to keep a light heart!

Unfortunate and somewhat embarressing perhaps, but highly amusing.
The choice of words barcode uses do seem to be of this nature a lot of the time, so I can sort of see the OPs point.
I'm all for professionalism but I'm MORE for acting like an adult and realizing the world isn't all roses and tea.

The real issue -- the issue that the original author failed to address -- is not about "professionalism" at all. The real issue is about personal mores and taste.
Words mean things, and the Fedora package is every bit as "professional" as any other Linux distro.
If someone does not like, or want something as simple as a screen saver, for whatever reasons, it is their choice and their responsibility to address the matter on each machine they administer. The same argument could be made for including games in the distro when it is used in a work environment that does not allow games.
The responsibility for administering a system lies with the owner, not the software manufacturer. MS has made good money trying to remove the responsibility of system admin from its userbase, and that is not how the real world works.
