WH: I've seen this bug already reported.

Fedora as a distro doesn't have nothing to do with such complains as they happen due a lack of proper driver implementation as some companies still refuses to support linux or because a software component is not working properly. In both cases Fedora doesn't directly develop the drivers or the components that doesn't work and you should get your complain to the upstream projects so they can fix it sometime or fill a bug report to Fedora so they can report upstream and apply patches as the come in.

WH: Huh? proprietary stuff?? No idea what you are talking about unless you mean the hardware.

Yes i was talking about the hardware. Having proper support for all brand new hw is quite difficult if the hw vendor doesn't support linux.

WH: I'm running RHEL which is more stable.  But I like to do other work on Fedora and was hoping Fedora 10 was more stable. I realize there are a lot of different hardware platforms out there and it is difficult to support. I'm a bit surpprised because there are so many Lenova T6x around I thought that it would have been tested more and there more stable. 

I don't know how many hardware platforms they have to test new releases but i'm pretty sure that the real testing is done when a new release comes out and we upgrade Fedora to the next version. A lot of things can happen then.
 

TBW this seemed to get worse the last few weeks so I wonder if some of my updates made the issue much more frequent.

They must be fighting the bugs :), but still is too soon to have them fixed. I've run in a lot of problems with NetworkManager with F9 and F10 that only got solved after the hw driver got properly fixed (intel wifi driver).
 

Best,
William
