Hi everybody,

a few days ago I upgraded from f8 to rawhide. I encountered the
following problems:

* While upgrading, it launched /bin/sh a couple of times. For a short
period of time it printed error messages, because a certain lib was
missing. I'm sorry I didn't write it down, but I think it was t1lib. I
don't know if that's a big issue, but maybe some install scripts
failed because the shell wouldn't launch?

* Firefox has _big_ menus, buttons and distances between lines. So
far, it's the only application I noticed with such an odd error. I
tried a clean profile, but that did not help. I guess it's a setting
I've set incorrectly. Any pointers?

Manually set the dpi. Go into about:config, search for dpi, there is a css.dpi setting that you can set to get the layout to flow in a size that looks right, just try something between 90-150 and see what works. You could look in xdpyinfo for your actual dpi.

* No sound. Sound detection works just fine (e.g. I can play sounds
when pressing test in system-config-soundcard) but all other
applications seem to complain: the gnome volume control says there are
no GStreamer plugins/devices and kaffeine/amarok say xine failed to
initialize all audio drivers.

Try: yum install gstreamer-plugins- gstreamer-totem gstreamer-tools

Is pulseaudio running in your session? You may want to get these tools installed to help work with PA.

yum install padevchooser pavucontrol pavumeter paman

lspci:

I'm not very familiar with ALSA device drivers but these look like typical debugging output and shouldnt prevent sound playback.
