The host name that fedora uses is stashed in the

If there is, someone will "improve" it so you can't find it
in the next release anyway, so you might as well stick
to editing /etc/hostname.

I installed Fedora 19 and the machine gets IP address from DHCP and
comes up with a hostname of:
$ hostname
unknownF46D04B04638
I'd like to set the hostname to match the DNS name that goes with the

I believe I could use:
$ hostnamectl --static myhost

Hi all,
Does anybody know what the corelation between fedora package version
numbers and mozilla version numbers?
e.g. While looking into CSS3 compatibility everybody refers to
firefox-3.x; but fedora firefox->about reports firefox 26.0.
Hard to imagine fedora is 23 major versions ahead of

A few months ago I installed Fedora 20 as dual boot on a new Dell
desktop - one with UEFI. But I got confused while installing it and
