Well, I could say the same, but this problem is an order of magnitude more complicated than anything I have experienced using Fedora in 8+ years, is that chicken little?. Although some of the other responses have made clear that some important underlying changes have been made Fedora 14 -> 15, and any one of these could be the cause of my problem. Therefore I cautiously recommend a fresh install of Fedora 15, rather than trying a yum update, (which was my original warning), and this makes updating my laptop a much more time consuming process. Your name calling, whether it be Chicken Little, Hysteria, or whatever, certainly doesn't help, or inspire confidence. Especially as you may well find yourself with a similar order of magnitude type problem, and face similar responses. cpp4ever -- 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
