Fedora Installation and customization

Preupgrade

As root, update the system, install pre-upgrade and run preupgrade

 # yum update
 # yum install preupgrade
 # preupgrade
 


If the message Oh no something has gone wrong, is coming up after upgrade to Fedora 16, them remove `.gnome*` and `.gconf*` folders from home and root directories, then reboot the system.

Desktop Workspaces

On Fedora 15 the default manager is Gnome 3, which doesn't handle the workspaces as expected on multiple screen. Than means only the main monitor changes the workspace but the additional monitor keeps with the same desktop.

In order to fix this, install gnome-editor and run it, then navigate to desktop > gnome > shell > windows and uncheck the workspaces_only_on_primary box.
