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.
