I have been running the .32 kernel from koji for a while without issue in my
laptop - but I wondered if getting the .33 kernel (which has some important
fixes over .32) might be possible without too much hassle but keep the rest
of f12 going as it is in a stable manner.  If what is needed is to update
dracut, mesa, x11 and a few other things at the same time and it will still
boot and run X (with gnome 2-d only) then that would be nice!
