Anyone currently running Fedora Linux ?

just started using it and I was wondering if there was a good support site or FAQ i could go through. just on the basics atm, Like changing the monitor specs from 800x600 to another resolution (mine maxes at 800x600 becuase i selected an 800x600 monitor and i cant find where to select another atm)

So far im impressed, they have come a long way fromthe last time i used a red hat product, though the current kernel is kinda slow on my weak system :P Gonna drop some more ram and see if some things speed up.

I do Diaf. Just go to the Redhat website for documentation support. They plan on having better support soon, but until then just use Redhat. to Change to a higher resolution just run the redhat xwindows configuration tool. think its redhat-configure-xfree86. (at the prompt type in redhat and press tab a couple times and it will list all your possible selections for the redhat configuration tool) You can reselect your monitor there. Just choose generic monitor that can handle 1280 x 1024 with 60hz refresh rate.
If you still have problems, send me a tell in the game and I can tell you how to manually set your setting with your config file.
