Yay, Fedora installed super-quickly on the spanking new box that I have here – the new albus. Everything “just works”, just think I’m missing the PC speaker sound – could be an hardware issue, but I’m back to using a desktop again.
Evolution is a bit of a pain I guess – I moved ~/evolution from my laptop to the desktop, and to make sure all is really well, you should perform “evolution --force-shutdown” first and then backup ~/.gconf/apps/evolution as well. Seems to be a real FAQ on the lists, with repeated introductions of how tar works too. Someone should come up with a “sync Evolution” script, so things work seamlessly on say a laptop/desktop kinda use case.
