Hi.
I updated from F13 to rawhide today and everything went smooth when I skipped packages with broken deps. Ended up with some 1500 packages being updated :-)
When I booted and logged in I noticed the following:
- mouse movement is really slow. The pointer moves a centimeter or two every time I drag my finger across the mousepad. Tried changing the settings, but nothing seems to help there. Not kernel related as it is the same when I boot the f13 kernel
- the battery icon looks strange - very thin. Probably something to do with the symbolic icon support?
- Broadcom 4322 wireless doesn't work because of a missing kmod package from rpmfusion?
- firefox crashes on startup
- epiphany crashes on some pages (seems related to java-1.6.0-openjdk not having been built for f14?
Other than that things seem to work at least, but not having a working browser is a PITA :-)
Cheers Kjartan

I found that when updating a graphical install of F13 to Rawhide, there were lots of orphan packages ( packages not available from any currently enabled repository, you can see these with either "package-cleanup --orphans" or "yum list extras"). You can use "yum distro-sync" (new feature in Rawhide's yum) to synchronize the versions of all packages with those currently in rawhide. This might also reduce the number of broken dependencies.

Dunno.

If you run Rawhide you *really* need to install the akmod package. Fusion don't always rebuild kmods for every Rawhide kernel build, and even when they do, they'll always be a day or two behind, which is quite a while in the fast-paced world of Rawhide.
- firefox crashes on startup
Dunno. Given the below, try it without Java? Do it from a console and see what error you get?
- epiphany crashes on some pages (seems related to java-1.6.0-openjdk

Dunno, but see above. Do you *need* Java?

Pretty sure it doesn't work against 2.6.34 anyway.

In that case, he gets to keep both halves =)

It's not that I don't know that I get to keep both halves when running rawhide. I just wanted to show you guys that something was broken in the first place :-)
Btw, I've been running mostly on rawhide since Fedora 2 or something like that so I'm very aware of the dangers involved and the lack of guarantees that things will work etc.

Richard answered this, but shouldn't gnome-icon-theme-symbolic have been pulled in by whatever package that needs it?

Yeah, no problem. Just wanted to put it out there.

Filed a bug with the details:

Yeah, I need Java for many of the things I use daily. Filed a bug with information on the crash:

I suppose it should be in comps, or maybe as a require to something generic like gnome-desktop3.

I missed this yesterday. Thanks for the explanation, but I've given myself some time to adjust to the new behavior now and I can safely say that it's not working as it is now at least. I have to drag my finger across the mousepad 15-20 times to move the pointer across the screen from one side to the other.

Touchpad reporters will need to revert to keyboard magic $foo until the new Xorg components get pushed.
Who needs a mouse or touchpad anyway ;)

I'll just try to revert to the pre 1.2.99 version of the driver then. Thanks.

Well I haven't experienced this directly (haven't updated anything to Rawhide, yet) but it doesn't sound like the intended behaviour - I read it as the movement should be slower, but not unreasonably so. It may be worth checking in with Peter to see if something's out of whack, here.

I understood it like this would be fixed when the relevant Xorg server bits land in rawhide. I've reverted to the old driver now and everything works like it did. Thanks again.
