konqueror drives me crazy when i click an link in psi
infinite loop startup

sudo chkconfig cups off

No iscsi sorry

I don't use nfs
sudo chkconfig rpcbind off
sudo chkconfig rpcidmapd off
sudo chkconfig netfs off
sudo chkconfig nfslock off
sudo chkconfig pcscd off

i don't update my cpu microcode too often

I found that i have installed smolt with interesting stats about hardware used in Fedora
http://smolt.fedoraproject.org/

I didn't knew what portreserve is so i disabled it
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Portreserve

sudo chkconfig portreserve off


live cd install leftovers http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=207366

sudo chkconfig livesys off
sudo chkconfig livesys-late off

wtf sendmail by default !? maybe in next fedora it should be proposed postfix by default
also all the above daemons disabled by default (rpc/nfs related ones)

sudo yum install postfix
sudo yum remove sendmail


remove pulse audio see why skype related http://akdwivedi.wordpress.com/2009/05/09/skype-on-64bit-fedora-10/

sudo rpm -e kde-settings-pulseaudio-4.3-12.noarch
sudo yum remove pulseaudio
sudo yum remove pulseaudio-utils
sudo killall -9 pulseaudio

Here is how to add mp3 support in amarok

sudo yum install xine-lib-extras-freeworld

oh crap i can't remove konqueror in in the kde-base

and i miss abrowser or iceweaseal packages (unbranded firefox)

I found that qmake is qmake-qt4

what i miss from ubuntu is command line not found suggestions (when you miss package bash can suggest you what to install)
