I remember I installed F10 XFCE with no swap a few months ago, on the same netbook, so I suppose that maybe the installation requirements have grown. However, it should be possible to install with swap, and then just delete the swap partition by merging it with /. I'll try this evening to see if it's possible. @meine: I recently decided to reinstall F12 on my A110L 8 GB SSD with 512 MB RAM, and I’ve noticed the same issue, the installer demanding a swap partition to complete installation.

Thanks for a great guide – didn’t know my “AA1 8G SSD” could work that great! (I even use it as a MythTV frontend once in a while). A little question: You write “Making suspend work when closing the lid … should work out of the box”. Mine doesn’t. In fact nothing at all happens when I close the lid… But the strange thing is, that also when I hit the power button, nothing happens! I don’t have any other experience with the Fedora XFCE distribution, but shouldn’t the “Log out”, “Restart”, “Suspend” etc. dialog appear when I hit the power button? Hi Jorge!

Until you, or someone else, decides to make/improve a better plugin, this is just fine and dandy with me.

You open plugins then eq then set it then close it. If you want to change eq settings you have to keep going into plugins>edit>eq. What a pain in the ass. This is crap.
