Hi Ryan,
Thanks for the great suggestions. The pleasure is all mine, Fedora has
brought so many positive changes in my world of computing, If I can do
anything for the project, it's an honor and a privilege.
I have tried to incorporate your suggestions in the article and
resubmitted it for review. Please have a look and let me know if any
further refinement would be good.
Thanks again.

Hi Sumit!
First up, thanks for submitting your first post to the Fedora
Magazine. I have done a quick review of your post, and here are a
few ideas / suggestions from me. (other editors, feel free to pitch
in ideas too)
First up, i'd probably be a bit more direct and informative with the
title, instead of "Fedora 22 Intel Graphics Woes : Here's some
help"
maybe something like "Solution for graphics issues on some Intel
graphics chipsets in Fedora 22" (just a suggestion, feel free to
change and or edit too :) )
Secondly, i'd probably remove the majority of the first paragraph
and lead with the issue itself (your third paragraph) -- most people
get to the magazine via third party links, so starting with the info
they came for always works well. I'm thinking something like:
"""
Fedora 22 was [link to release annonce on fedora mag]released
recently[/link], and if you are using a Pre-Sandybridge era
Intel-based graphics chipset (For example, Intel 4 series
motherboards with G41 chipset and GMA X4500 graphics), chances are
that you might be facing graphics issues like shown in below
screenshot on Fedora 22.
[screenshot]
"""
Then after the screenshot, have your brief description of the
problem, covering the points that fedora switched to a new accel
method that doesnt work so well with older chipsets.
Then put the solution. I found the bug for this issue
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1226743) which might be
worth mentioning. And there updated kernels (kernel-4.0.5-300.fc22
and kernel-4.0.5-200.fc21) that fix this issue is already in
updates-testing, so it is probably a better solution to recommend
that people install the new package with the fix from updates
testing, or wait for the package to hit the proper repos (rather
than editing a config file that they may forget about and cause them
issues in the future.)
cheers,

Just did a quick edit, and added a quick howto on getting the packages
>from updates-testing (in case the reader doesnt know how to), and added
some emphasis on the note that the workaround is a temp solution.
Does that look ok to you? feel free to revert if you don't agree :)
cheers,
ryanlerch
Looks good!
Can one of the other editors have a quick sanity check of the post this
morning (Monday morning USA time), and publish if it is ok sometime this
morning?
I made a few more tweaks and will publish it.
