  1. The x86_64 is for a 64 bit processor. Most likely, if you aren't sure, you have a 32 bit processor(i386). If you don't know, check online w/ the model of your CPU.

    Screen refresh rate

    Is a higher or lower refresh rate better for your eyes?
  3. I have grub installed and I have WinXP and Fedora installed. When I first installed Fedora, my grub loader only had 2 options, fedora, and windows. Every time i update the kernel though, it adds another option to my grub loader. Is there a way to get rid of the old kernels on the loader, so I only have the latest kernel as an option?
  4. I have a DWL-G510 wireless card in my PC, and I am running FC4. I have been searching high and low for answers. I finally got it to work, at 5 a.m. this morning. The steps are: 1. Download MadWiFi 2. Download sharutils 4.6 (I didn't have uudecode, which is required for MadWiFi installation) 3. Get into a terminal as root and went to the directory with the WiFi files. 4. Type make 5. Type make install 6. Type wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta 7. Type iwconfig ath0 essid ANY 8. Type ifconfig ath0 up 9. Type dhclient Tada! To start it up every time you will have to get into a terminal as root and do steps 6-9. It was a long and hard process to figure all of this out. Everywhere I searched only had bits and pieces to getting it to work. The only problem is I have not yet figured out how to activate the card on startup. I tried putting steps 6-9 in /etc/rc.local but that didn't work. Can anyone help me out there? I heard something about an init.d ...? Another note: I installed an updated kernel, and I had to reinstall the wifi drivers to get it to work again. I hope this helps everyone who has troubles with their DWL-G510!!
