go into accessability under control panel - its a wheelchair icon and uncheck sticky keys. This works for win 9x and 2k so try it on XP

Fedora core 2 is full of bugs and is extremely hard to dual boot. I dont advise it.

I dont know about Red Hat 9 But in red hat Fedora core you can go into GNOME and right click on the trash and select a check box to get the prompt asking yes or no.
