Partial answer (just my experience):  installed x86_64 F15Alpha RC 2, 
was able to manually select gnome-shell.  Then updated and can no longer 
get the shell.  Have to metacity --replace just to regain window 
control.  Getting ready to reinstall and no updates for awhile.  Radeon 
VGA.  Don't know if this is a mutter problem, mesa problem, or what. 
Oh, BTW, gdm is borked again.  Saw a bz on gdm.
