But it turned out it is hit by a bug where the driver (nouveau) tries to reload firmwire in its resume code while userspace is still frozen. That fails, but only after sitting there looking dead for 60s. After the timeout, it resumes great. So it might be worth trying. > * logitech quickcam express doesn't work -- light goes on in > Cheese/skype, but not image I don't know about it specifically, but when I use my USB microscope I use Camorama.

FC15 beta testing result by my 76-year old uncle
Hi all, I've setup FC15 beta for my 76-year old uncle. The major issues encountered: * wake up from suspend didn't work on his laptop; on another one does * logitech quickcam express doesn't work -- light goes on in Cheese/skype, but not image Overall, it was pretty ok. Here's my uncle talking with a friend of his: http://tinypic.com/r/311vvnq/7 He finds very helpful l10n and Chrome translate of english content. Happy Easter :) Marius -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
