Fedora Rawhide installation with Basic Video driver...

Installation on AMD Chipset 785 Failed (Fedora Bug)
with Default GUI, so Tried with Basic Video driver
(during Boot option), GUI installation started, even it
was not good, but working,

after installation, it was not showing proper
resolution on my Monitor, display was not good.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf file was showing 'vesa' display
driver, if you need to get proper working xserver,
then need to remove that file and just reboot,
it will be automatic detected and work fine.

install compare-locales (from Mozilla l10n tools)

To install compare-locales on Fedora Machine,
'easy_install' need to install, which is NOT
part of python-setuptools, for which I tried
many times to find and install, but it IS
part of python-setuptools-devel (mostly
devel packages don't have command useful
for user).

$yum install python-setuptools-devel

$easy_install compare-locales

so, now you can use this on Fedora to
compare your locale with english strings
How to use, please check Mozilla Website and Blogs

Fedora Repo - How Repodata/boot.iso updated without package update...

I burnt boot.iso yesterday and started today's
testing with that only (as Mailing list was showing
NO package update on rawhide mail )

After finishing installation I by mistake run
rsync script to sync with server, and wondered
to see updated Boot.iso and 'repodata' folder,
Not very sure about this, not know what is updated in
that,

So Finally I have to start my testing back.
