[ldm-users] Weather.admin.niu.edu down...and looking for ideas.

[Chris Gidley]

I've heard multiple simillar problems from people with newer processors 
and the solution for them was to use the text install, rather than 
graphical.  You may want to try that. The graphical install and 
upgrading from Fedora 6 were the two major problems for fedora 7 not 
working that I could find. Couldn't hurt; hope it works for you, I know 
how troubling kernel problems can be.
