Subject: fc4, configuring without firstboot?
Date: Wed, 2 Nov 2005 21:40:37 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <003b01c5e01f$fd5c2690$6901a8c0@thinkpad> (raw)
Hi everyone,
I'm about to perform a fresh install of FC4, and would like to do all I can to avoid dealing with firstboot.
To the best of my knowledge, Firstboot accomplishes the following tasks:
1. creates a second non root user account.
2. Verifies date and time settings.
3. Detects the sound card and configures alsa.
4. configures video settings for gnome.
have I missed any?
Dealing with 1 and 2 aren't going to be a problem, but what about 3 and 4? I know that there used to be a command line configuration utility for alsa called alsaconf, but that no longer seems to be the case. I've tried installing alsa-utils as well as doing several variations of yum searches but to no avail, so I'm beginning to believe that alsaconf is no longer available.
I have no idea how I might go about configuring the video, although I'm not sure how much it really matters for the time being. I want to make use of Gnopernicus and Orca and if they'll both be happy with the default video settings, then I won't worry about changing them for now.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks,
--Al
