The Fedora Experience Continued
Well, I managed to get a cabled connection with a crossover cable to a windows computer. That allowed me to update fedora’s repos and install ndiswrapper and a couple of programs. Once I installed the video drivers, I was able to get the graphical user interface (GUI) running. Then I was able to create my user account but had problems loading my home directory. I tried correcting the file permissions and user and group owners., still no go. Eventually, I got annoyed of the file manager’s behavior. When I navigate to a folder or even the parent directory of the current directory, it would open a new window of the file manager.
Since fedora was driving me crazy from the start, I decided to try something else. I know I probably didn’t give fedora a chance but since I wanted to use the same user directory for both linux distros, it had to work together with ubuntu.
