The oopses seem benign, but the WiFi dropouts are very annoying. They seem related to overall system "pauses" where everything stops until I click or move the mouse, or generate some other interrupt. Everything was fine with Fedora 10. These pausing and dropout problems made Fedora 11 almost unusable. I'm installing F12-Alpha now hoping upstream patches to the kernel have fixed things. There seems to be some improvement to the WiFi, but the pauses are still there. Haven't seen a kernel oops yet. --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
