I am writing this because I am beginning to get frustrated with
Fedora 16. I am on the verge of going back to Fedora 15 so I can
have some peace of mind. There was a time up until now that
after a RC release it would settle down and run nice but with
this Release that is not the case. I am not giving up on Fedora
as a whole but when you can't make anything run without freezing
screens and nvidia drivers won't install it becomes frustrating.<br>

Maybe I made a lot of changes at once, from a HP nc2400 with f14
to a Lenovo x120e with f16. I have not noticed any slowdowns even
though the HP was a duo core and the Lenovo is single. So I would
put the suspect on the nvidia cruft. And nvidia for some reason
has been a long time sore spot with Fedora.<br>

I just re-installed Fedora 16 on my desktop and before the
re-install every thing was running fine. Now Gnome3 is freezing and
nautilus is having trouble opening and the list goes on. I agree
with Christopher and Cox, maybe there needs to be a slow down on the
eye candy and work on a solid foundation for the eye candy to run
on. It seems that we are falling into the cart before horse
syndrome. I have been with Linux for about 6 years and the one thing
I have always bragged about was their ability to produce cutting
edge OS's with eye candy and not the other way around.<br>
