Just one data point, maybe an isolated one, dunno: That sounds encouraging, but it doesn't match with my recent experience: for 3 weeks I thought F-13 kernels not booting for me was a nouveau issue (my bug report had nouveau in the bug summary during that time). It may be something different after all, but I still don't know for sure and there was and still has not been a word from the bug assignees/Cc'd people. Not sure if Ben is among them though. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=571587 -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
