Hi there, I am finding a lot of problems with Fedora 17. I have installed the DVD distribution and after a few days I got a kernel panic after an upgrade. Fortunately after a few days I could re-upgrade the kernel to a newer version available. However many system commands do not obey me. For instance, it does not allow me to choose wallpaper, it is now complaining about glibc with errors, why? Everything is fresh install. I have also tried yum reinstall glibc unsuccessfully. It does not let me open System Settings now. All very strange. By the way, default GNOME is horrible. I have successfully changed it back to Gnome 2. However the system seems to be still very unstable. I choose NAMED and SMBD at Services but after a reboot systems seems to lose the information so I have to set it back up manually. I used RH9 in the past which was wonderful, very stable. Then RHELv5 very stable too but RH no longer allows academic subscription. So I stuck with Fedora14 which worked fine too. Now I am having all these troubles with v17. I have been using Linux for over twelve years now and do consider myself an expert with it as much as other Unix OS's. Should I wait for the new release 18? Why 17 is so unstable? Would anyone please advise?
