[Silver-0-surfer]

So I just installed Fedora 15, giving gnome3 a try and i do an ifconfig and get this

[admin@ryan ~]$ ifconfig

Other than device naming changes, no?

Or are we supposed to read something in l347 speak?

Well this is a stock standard install, so unless its normal for eth0 to be renamed to p33p1 yes you should

I tried out Fedora 15 yesterday and I might just be moving over to Gnome 3 My Fedora experience was greatly improved with a little app called FedoraPlus and the Gnome shell extensions make a major difference also. Now to get my TV card working.

Looks normal to me.

If you have used other nix in the past you will know its nothing new, for example take freebsd, uses its own thing, usually linked to the driver name.

Same. However my main machine at home doubles as my htpc and unfortunately mythtv is a nightmare to get running on Fedora and I can't get irxevent to work with my remote on Fedora, so I have to use my FrankenBuntu install until I get my dedicated htpc setup going. I can't wait.

Again, the lack of configuring is driving me up the walls.
I wonder who the devs are that thought this would be a good idea.

"Hey Joe, let's make it so that they can configure almost nothing. And let's lock the panels so that they can't move, delete, create or resize them!"
"Brilliant Mike, now why did we not think of this years ago?!"

I'm pretty sure that will come in time. Gnome 3 was just released.

If you want to move your panels and stuff around use the XFCE version of fedora
