How to analyze the principle of Fedora 16? in view of this problem, this article introduces the corresponding analysis and solution in detail, hoping to help more partners who want to solve this problem to find a more simple and feasible method.

II. Upgrade from Fedora 15 to Fedroa 16

Recommended view: upgrade from Fedora 13: 14 to Fedora 15.

III. Installation matters

# 1 fedora 16 Beta download

Download address: click here.

# 2. If you use USB disk to install, Unetbootin is the recommended tool under Linux.

Sudo apt-get install unetbootin

Or use the Boot disk Builder (usb-creator-gtk/kde) that comes with the Ubuntu system.

# 3, File system

Fedora 16 Beta supports the "Brtfs" file system format

Tip: when laying out the disk for a new hard disk, set the BIOS Boot partition with the size of 0room2m, otherwise an error will be reported.

The specific installation process is omitted.

IV. Basic configuration of the system

# 1,su

The system that has just been installed cannot add sudo execution directly in the command. You can use su or su-c 'cmd' to execute commands that require administrator privileges.

Su # switch to root permission

Or

Su-c 'cmd'

# 2. Enable sudo

Enter the vi / etc/sudoers or visudo command under the terminal:

# vi / etc/sudoers

Or

# visudo

Search for the file and find the following and 2 lines:

# # Allow root to run any commands anywhere

Root ALL= (ALL) ALL

Then, add the following below the second line

'username' ALL= (ALL) ALL

Tip: just change it to your user name.

# 3. Check and install system updates

Check for system updates:

Sudo yum check-update

Install system updates:

Sudo yum update

# 4. Set the Chinese input method

Look for "Input Method selector" (input method switch) in the application, select "Show all" (show all input methods), select "Chinese" and add "Pinyin input method".

Chinese input method also has Fcitx Little Penguin input method, ibus-sunpinyin, ibus-googlepinyin, fcitx-googlepinyin, small input method and so on.

Fcitx little penguin input method:

Sudo yum install fcitx

Ibus-sunpinyin:

Sudo yum install ibus-sunpinyin

Ibus-googlepinyin & Fcitx-googlepinyin compilation: click to view

# 5. Multimedia coding & Flash plug-in

Multi-media-codec: in order to play audio and video file formats normally, multimedia coding needs to be installed.

Yum localinstall-nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-rawhide.noarch.rpm

Yum install ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs gstreamer-ffmpeg xvidcore libdvdread libdvdnav lsdvd

Yum install gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly

Flash plug-in:

Click the Adobe Flash Player official website to download the .rpm package, download is complete, and click install.

Five: GNOME 3.2 configuration

# 1. Install Gnome-tweak-tool
