	No, though that happens to be true: I had read of its existence, 
and never used it.

	What I was trying to say was that, now that I did use it, it did 
nothing. I find in fact that quite a few familiar techniques, such as 
left-clicking to get a context menu, or clicking-&-dragging, do nothing 
afaict. I even tried Alt-F2 followed by typing blind; but that did 
nothing either.

	This has reached a point where, after I click a couple of things, 
my terminal gets covered up, and the only way I can get back to it is to 
hit Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and log in again.

	Since, as I confirmed above, I did have session saving enabled 
before doing the preupgrade, I'm likely suffering under 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=698184 and
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647359 .

	I don't know for sure how much of what I'm posting results from 
one or both of those bugs, and how much might be new.

I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.
