My Fedora 17 experience so far

[Tom Horsley]

On the plus side:

1. Intel graphics are much improved (weird artifacts are finally
   gone in games like neverputt and neverball).

On the minus side:

1. USB Wi-Fi dongle not working as access point
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=828824

   This one has come and gone several times before on kernel
   changes. It seems to have gone again with 3.4 kernel.

2. Computer freezes when trying to edit boot entry on grub2
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=830843

   There are patches that fix this working through the
   system now.

3. Kernel panic at reboot (possibly NFS related).
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=830862

   Looks like patches exist to fix this as well, but
   they aren't in the "stable" kernel tree (leading me to
   wonder what "stable" means :-).

4. unable to pair with simple bluetooth serial module
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=831019

   Seems like the problem is strictly with pairing.
   I copied /var/lib/bluetooth from my fedora 16
   partition, and I can talk to all the same devices
   I had previously paired in f16.

5. Annoying changes to emacs default behavior, but I can
   fix all them with lisp tweaks. I'm used to emacs
   changing out from under me :-).
