Did you mean to say > that you have never used it before? No, though that happens to be true: I had read of its existence, and never used it. What I was trying to say was that, now that I did use it, it did nothing. I find in fact that quite a few familiar techniques, such as left-clicking to get a context menu, or clicking-&-dragging, do nothing afaict. I even tried Alt-F2 followed by typing blind; but that did nothing either. This has reached a point where, after I click a couple of things, my terminal gets covered up, and the only way I can get back to it is to hit Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and log in again. Since, as I confirmed above, I did have session saving enabled before doing the preupgrade, I'm likely suffering under https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=698184 and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647359 . I don't know for sure how much of what I'm posting results from one or both of those bugs, and how much might be new. -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
