Fedora Core The Fedora Project has pushed out its 9th release. The release announcement is one of those fancy story ones, without much actual information, but an earlier email by Fedora project leader Paul Frields had some more interesting things to say.

* Screen resolution wrong on my 4:3 CRT monitor (even if I pick the exact model from the monitor list) - it appears that an "unknown" monitor only gives you options for mostly widescreen resolutions or a surprisingly low 1024x768 4:3 resolution. Yep, Modes line needed in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to fix this - a major step down from F8.


Bug report this to fedora and xorg upstream. The point of the new Xserver architecture is that you shouldn't need to have a xorg.conf file at all, everything should be autodetected.
