Kiryl,

Could you add a short rundown of the hardware you are running? i've been 
a RH user on and off since 6.2 and wow, FC3 has jacked my box up so 
much, i downloaded Debian stable last night for a testing install.

Anyway, if your hardware is similar to mine and some others, i may just 
wait it out. i like Fedora - don't really want to switch at all.
