Started playing around with FC3 on my 770Z TP. . . .
The installation goes smoother.
USB detection and installation of USB devices is greatly improved.
But, on the downside:
Sound still (!) doesn't work with the default kernel. Looks like I'll
have to do a custom kernel build, just as with FC2 (grumble, grumble).
Some defaults have been changed for no reason I can figure out. For
example, the CD ROM mounts at /media/cdrom, rather than /mnt/cdrom. Why?
Of course, this can be remedied by editing /etc/fstab, but why? I guess
if'n it ain't broke, you gotta fix it anyway.
Main complaint is sound.
