Recent upgrade


I recently upgraded to a Phenom II X4. Didn’t want to upgrade OS (FC9), but as the new HW didn’t work directly with my previous installation, I really had no choice.

Upgrade was rather painless. Some problems with some of my packages due to upgrades to sip (e.g., __setitem__ no longer takes multiple arguments).

Only other problems were the typical Flash installation pain, sound not working out of the box (M4A78 Pro Mobo), and temperature sensors not working. The first two are solved (alsa-drivers package solved sound), but I still don’t have a solution for the sensors. I did, however, try out FC11 beta earlier, and the sensors seemed to work then. Tried recent version of lm_sensors with no luck either. Guess I’ll have to wait.

Most of the settings are complete, so I can, hopefully, resume to normal work.
