Re: Fedora 12 Extremely Unstable

I reinstalled Fedora, and also checked the cd I installed from
to see if that would fix the problem.  I believe the issues I had
previously may have been caused by putting /home on its own lvm, which
I did not do when I reinstalled.  I wanted to do this so I could
install future releases without having to erase the home folder. 
Unfortunately, I don't have the time continue to reinstall Fedora over
and over to confirm that putting /home on its own lvm is the source of
the issue, but maybe someone else can replicate this? 

Before reinstalling, the programs that crashed when I tried to edit
their preferences were all of the ones I tried: Thunderbird, Empathy,
and Mozilla.  The automatic bug reporting tool crashed the system when
trying to report some of the bugs too.

The system was fully update when I was experiencing the crashes.

Reinstalling solved all of my problems except one.  Keyboard shortcuts
are still not saved.  However, this issue is trivial compared to the
frequent crashes I was experiencing before.

    I just installed Fedora 12, to replace Fedora 11, and I have some bugs

     1. Fedora 12 crashes frequently and makes it almost unusable for
        me.  It seems to crash whenever I try to edit/change sound
        preferences.  When I do this I get logged out and then have to
        log back in.  I can repeat this at any time by going to go
        System->Preferences->Sound.

     2. Editing preferences for certain programs causes me to be
        logged out but this is random and I haven't found a way to
        repeat it.

     3. Changes to keyboard shortcuts are not saved.  I tried mapping
        Alt+T as the shortcut for the terminal and it does not work.

  Have you also updated your system since the install to make sure you any
included fixes/updates that didn't make it to final release?
