No offence to anybody, but after persisting with Fedora > since Fedora core 2 I'm somewhat disappointed. i know that the release quality get more and more worse and hope the people resposible for that will relize this as soon as possible but it doe snot help screaming and running away because changes in fedora will hit most distributons sooner or later and mostly SUCH sort of troubles can be isolated easily why? because it works before you upgrade the system again so it was not introduced with the release himself so you can look what packages are updated in combination with infos about your environment this can be fixed, but with only whining nobody is able to help you, desribe your probles as exactly as possible or your post is useless
