Hi all,

Very excited at the ease of installation on Fedora, ecstatic at the installation and execution of my windows software (Lightworks) and then heartbroken at a weird RAM issue. I have 992 meg RAM on the computer but when the program starts up I get a warning that there is insufficient RAM, only 207meg, and that none of it is available. any suggestions?

ta!

Which Fedora, F14,15 and16 are all current. 32 or 64 bit version? How
much swap space did you set up?

Other than get more RAM (1GB is barely sufficient to run FC 16 on), no.
