The icon is usually painted with the same color as some other key that's typically labeled "Fn". That's your hint. There may be more than one key, to cut over your video completely, to the external port, or to have it go both to the laptop and to the external video. pgpnWDa5hbJKZ.pgp Description: PGP signature -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

The /dev/fd[0-9] block devices are created as needed when the system detects floppies. For example, when the floppy module is loaded, or when a USB floppy is plugged in. You can create a udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d to create the format specific devices. You may want to look at /lib/udev/rules.d/60-floppy.rules for an example of what to detect. This is the system rule that creates /dev/fd[0-9]. I do not have time to generate a rule right now, but if you need help, I can come up with one later...

I hope someone else will be able to suggest a better approach (it would be interesting for me too), but what I would do is this: 1) create a 386 virtual machine (kvm, vmware, ...) 2) install a 386 fedora (better if you match the version which is on the old laptop) 3) compile in the vm This will work for sure.

Vps encrypted root partition
Hello, I'd like to encrypt sensible data on a VPS linux instance (emails, etc...) and I would proceed with a dm-crypt encrypted root tree (apart from /boot). Now the only downside I see is that in case of unexpected reboot I have to insert the pass-phrase to have the system booted. Any hints/recommendation/warnings about this configuration ? It's my first try at it.
