Hi all,
I've just upgraded my Fedora 8 to Fedora 10 using the upgrade option from
the DVD image.
Now I imagine that Fedora 8 to 10 is not really the supported or intended

Out of interest, does anyone know where the TV license issue stands on
browsing the BBC's website and using the iPlayer?
Presumably iPlayer is recorded TV programs and therefore a license is
required?

Which I guess means they reserve the right to change that to require a
license in the future as only the *current* version requires no license.
My ancient ThinkPad is perfectly OK for most things (I use xfce from
Debian unstable) but only has USB 1.1, so getting data in and out is a
tedious process. Does anyone know if a cardbus USB 2.0 card is likely
to work OK? There are plenty on eBay for about £7 which seems a

One thing that annoys me a little is that much of the media, specially
the live media like news24, can only be viewed if you are connecting
from a UK IP address.
Get a UK proxy, or run one on a machine at home and proxy everything
through that.

Hi,
I've seen cards similar that have a socket for an external PSU to power the
devices. Have you seen any like this?
I would ask the manufacturer is it does have a current limiter as a blown

Yes, I've got one. Never actually plugged anything into it, though.
