There's only one way to deal with programmers who think that's an 
appropriate error message: give their GPS coordinates to OADS 
(http://www.impsec.org/~jhardin/OADS/anvil_chorus.html).

Grovelling through your logs, however, reveals a large number of 
warnings about programs that shouldn't be run as root.  Were you trying 
to log into the GUI as root?  It's not exactly the best of ideas, and 
Fedora usually disables root logins by default.  If so, have you tried 
logging in as a non-root user?
